Indiana Fever Pull Off Shocking Upset in WNBA Showdown

Clark Leads Charge for Fever in Victory Over Seattle Storm

Atlanta, GA — NaLyssa Smith and Caitlin Clark Combined for 37 Points in Crucial Win

The Indiana Fever notched a major victory on June 27, 2024, upsetting the Seattle Storm 87-82 in a highly anticipated matchup. Led by NaLyssa Smith's impressive performance of 21 points and nine rebounds, the Fever overcame a rough shooting night to secure their first win over a top contender. Caitlin Clark, the Fever's rookie sensation, added 16 points and seven assists, further solidifying her reputation as one of the most promising young players in the WNBA. Her stellar play on both ends of the court helped guide the Fever to their much-needed triumph. Despite the Fever's 36.4% shooting percentage from the field and 23.1% from beyond the arc, they were able to capitalize on the Storm's uncharacteristic defensive lapses. The win marked the first time in Clark's WNBA career that she played against New York Liberty star Sabrina Ionescu, who had previously expressed high praise for the Fever's young talent.
