The rivalry that WNBA fans have been hoping to see between Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese developed further on Sunday afternoon as the Indiana Fever and Chicago Sky battled in a fiercely contested matchup.  Individually, Clark won the matchup with 23 points, eight rebounds and nine assists. She started off hot for the Fever, making her first three shots and scoring seven points in the first quarter. That matched her entire scoring total from Thursday’s win over the Atlanta Dream.

Reese was limited by foul trouble, going to the bench with four personals after picking up three in the third quarter. That included being called for a flagrant foul after hitting Clark in the head on a drive to the basket.

She drew her fifth foul midway through the fourth, but Sky coach Teresa Witherspoon put Reese back in the game with approximately five minutes remaining as the Fever built a five-point lead. The foul trouble stalled what appeared to be a good game for Reese, who led the Sky with nine points at halftime. She finished with 11 points, a team-high 13 rebounds and five assists.

Here’s how Sunday afternoon’s matchup unfolded:

Aliyah Boston beats the shot clock in the paint to give Indiana an 86–81 lead.

Caitlin Clark with a big 3 to give the Fever an 84–77 lead wth 3 minutes remaining.
