Caitlin Clark ignites Indiana Fever with an early 3-pointer against Dallas Wings, breaking a shooting slump in a thrilling WNBA matchup.
In a thrilling start to Sunday's matchup against the Dallas Wings, Indiana Fever's sensational guard Caitlin Clark reminded everyone why she's a fan favorite. Right out of the gate in the first quarter, Clark found herself wide open and didn’t hesitate to launch a deep 3-pointer from way beyond the arc. The ball swished through the net, giving her team an early boost and Clark a visible moment of relief as she mouthed "finally" while jogging back on defense.
Clark has been battling through a rough patch this season, with injuries piling up and her shooting numbers taking a hit. Coming into the game, her 3-point shooting sat at a frustrating 28.9%, with a dismal 4-for-35 in her last five outings. The Fever dropped three of those games, adding pressure to the young star. But against the Wings, with more minutes on the court, Clark looked revitalized, finishing the first quarter with seven points on 2-of-5 shooting as Indiana edged out a 28-27 lead.
Beyond the numbers, Clark’s grit and leadership shine through. Named a WNBA All-Star for the second consecutive year with the most fan votes, she’s not just a player but a captain, joined by teammates Alyiah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell on the All-Star roster. Meanwhile, the Fever, holding a 10-10 record and sitting eighth in the standings, are hungry for momentum. The Wings, at 6-15, brought their own star power with Paige Bueckers and Arike Ogunbowale, both All-Star representatives, into the matchup.
What’s clear is that Clark’s spark in this game could be the turning point she—and the Fever—desperately need. When she’s on, the court lights up, and fans can’t look away.
