In a game that captivated not just Indiana but the entire basketball world, Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever shattered expectations—and record books—with a 93-58 demolition of the Chicago Sky. The Fever didn’t just win a game; they made history, breaking 11 records in a single night and announcing their arrival as a true WNBA powerhouse.

Caitlin Clark’s Historic Triple-Double

All eyes were on Caitlin Clark—and she delivered. In just her 41st professional game, Clark recorded a stunning triple-double with 20 points, 10 assists, and 10 rebounds. What took Diana Taurasi 565 games to achieve, Clark did in just 41.

Clark became the fastest player in WNBA history to notch three career triple-doubles. Her performance also tied her for the second-most 20-point triple-doubles in league history. She now has nine games with at least 20 points and 10 assists, already tying Taurasi—who needed over a decade to reach that mark.

And Clark wasn’t just setting the tone offensively. She also recorded four blocks, a career high and the most by a point guard in a WNBA season opener. Her efforts on both ends left fans and analysts alike stunned. This wasn’t just about scoring—it was about dominance.

Aaliyah Boston Sends a Message

While Clark was dazzling fans with her all-around brilliance, Aaliyah Boston made sure to dominate the paint. Facing off against former South Carolina teammate and Sky rookie Angel Reese, Boston put on a defensive clinic with five blocks, 13 rebounds, and 19 points.

In just her third season, Boston already ranks eighth in franchise history for rebounds and sixth for blocks. She also became just the second player in league history to open a season with 15+ points, 10+ rebounds, and 5+ blocks. The only other player to do so? Natasha Howard in 2014.

Boston’s stifling defense neutralized Reese, who despite grabbing 17 rebounds, shot just 5-of-14 from the field. Every time the Sky tried to find momentum inside, Boston was there to shut it down.

DeWanna Bonner Makes History

In the midst of the chaos, another moment quietly etched itself into the history books. DeWanna Bonner, in her first game with the Fever, moved into third place on the WNBA’s all-time scoring list.

Needing just seven points to pass Tina Thompson, Bonner accomplished the feat at the free-throw line late in the game, sending the Indiana crowd into a standing ovation. Her 7,489 career points now trail only Tina Charles and Diana Taurasi.

But Bonner’s contributions go beyond stats. She’s the emotional and vocal leader of this young team, a six-time All-Star and two-time WNBA champion who’s mentoring rising stars like Clark, Boston, and Kelsey Mitchell.

Clark and Boston’s Defensive Chemistry Breaks Records

The synergy between Clark and Boston is developing at lightning speed. Their combined nine blocks against Chicago is the most ever by a guard-center duo in a WNBA season opener. This level of defensive impact—especially so early in their partnership—wasn’t expected for years.

While much of the media attention focuses on Clark’s offensive genius, it’s the Fever’s two-way excellence that should scare the rest of the league. This team isn’t just young and talented—they’re balanced, disciplined, and buying into the culture.

The Fever Are Just Getting Started

This 35-point win wasn’t just the second-largest victory in franchise history. It was a statement.

The Fever broke 11 records that night, including:

Most combined blocks by a guard-center duo in a season opener (9)

Fastest player to three triple-doubles (Clark, 41 games)

Most blocks by a point guard in a season opener (Clark, 4)

First ever 20-10-10 triple-double in a WNBA season opener

Boston becomes only second player to open season with 15/10/5 game

Bonner becomes third all-time leading scorer in league history

And that’s just the beginning.

Clark, Boston, Bonner, Mitchell, and a deep bench led by veterans like Brianna Turner, Sydney Colson, and Sophie Cunningham are creating something special in Indiana. The rotations are tight. The energy is relentless. The chemistry is real.

What Comes Next?

When a team breaks 11 records in one night, it’s not a fluke. It’s a warning shot. The Indiana Fever are no longer a rebuilding project—they’re a contender. And if what we witnessed against Chicago is any indication, they’re just scratching the surface.

The only question now: how many more records will they shatter?
