In one of the most anticipated matchups of the WNBA season, the Indiana Fever didn’t just walk away with a win — they made a statement. And at the center of it all was none other than Caitlin Clark, who delivered a historic triple-double that lit up the court and left the Chicago Sky scrambling for answers.

This wasn’t just a win.
It was a beatdown.

With all eyes locked on the ongoing rivalry between college sensations Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese, the game brought drama, tension, and undeniable electricity. From the jump, the Fever came out swinging — and Clark? She wasn’t just playing. She was rewriting the record books.

🔥 A Night of History for Caitlin Clark

Clark finished the night with 20 points, 10 assists, 10 rebounds, 4 blocks, and 2 steals — a stat line that has never been recorded in WNBA history. That’s right. No player, not a legend, not a vet, has ever put up those numbers in a single game.

It wasn’t just a triple-double.
It was a declaration of dominance.

She read the defense like a seasoned pro. She hit deep threes. She hustled for boards. She facilitated the offense with poise well beyond her rookie status. On both ends of the court, Caitlin Clark showed why she’s not just living up to the hype — she’s already changing the game.

🚨 Indiana Fever: Franchise-Record Opener

Clark’s brilliance wasn’t a solo act. The entire Indiana squad showed up — and showed out. This blowout win marked the largest season-opening victory in franchise history. It was a true team performance.

DeWanna Bonner added 7 points in 27 minutes

Natasha Howard dropped 15

Kelsey Mitchell contributed another 15

And Aliyah Boston? She went off — silencing any critics with a monster 19-point, 13-rebound performance

This Fever squad looked cohesive, confident, and dangerous. If they keep this momentum, they could be a serious contender by midseason.

😬 Angel Reese & the Chicago Sky Struggle

On the other side of the court, things didn’t go quite as planned for Angel Reese and the Sky. Though Reese logged a solid double-double (12 points, 17 rebounds), the team looked lost and disconnected for much of the night.

The Sky had no rhythm.
No energy.
No answers for Indiana’s relentless pace.

The game turned physical — body language from the Sky said it all: frustration, fatigue, and confusion. Despite having the offseason to prepare, the team looked like it was still in preseason mode.

Angel Reese did speak post-game, keeping her cool and saying the team had “good moments” but needed to “go back to the drawing board.” She’s not wrong. This wasn’t a close loss — this was a wake-up call.

💡 Rookie Camila Cardoso Shows Promise

One bright spot for Chicago? Camila Cardoso. The rookie added 7 points and 7 rebounds, showing toughness and grit despite the team’s struggles. She battled inside and gave the Sky a glimpse of what she could become. But if Chicago doesn’t tighten up — fast — even her energy won’t be enough to stop the slide.

💰 Dave Portnoy’s $350K Bet Pays Off

In a wild side note that had fans buzzing, Barstool Sports’ Dave Portnoy revealed that he placed a $25,000 bet on Clark getting a triple-double. Many scoffed.

But guess what?
Clark delivered — and Portnoy cashed out $350,000.

That’s how confident he was in Caitlin Clark. Turns out, he was right.

👑 “She’s Not Just Playing the Game. She’s Changing It.”

With every pass, every shot, every steal, Caitlin Clark is proving she’s more than just hype — she’s the real deal. She’s not just adjusting to the pros; she’s already defining what the future of the WNBA looks like.

This isn’t college anymore.
The stakes are higher.
The spotlight is hotter.
And Caitlin Clark is thriving in all of it.

As for Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky? It’s back to the locker room and back to the drawing board. The season’s just begun, but one thing is clear:

Caitlin Clark isn’t here to fit in.
She’s here to take over.
