Caitlin Clark led the Indiana Fever to a commanding 100-81 victory over the Chicago Sky, scoring a career-high 31 points and dishing out 12 assists. This performance solidified her status as the favorite for the WNBA Rookie of the Year, especially as she became the first rookie in league history to achieve at least 30 points and 10 assists in a single game. Meanwhile, Angel Reese recorded her 23rd double-double, surpassing Tina Charles for the most rebounds by a rookie, but faced criticism for perceived stat-padding during the loss. The Sky, struggling with six losses in seven games, are on the brink of playoff elimination, raising concerns among fans about Reese's performance and the team's direction. Clark's win also positions the Fever as playoff contenders, a significant turnaround from their early-season struggles. The game attracted a sellout crowd, highlighting the growing interest in this rookie rivalry.
