With Caitlin Clark missing out on a selection to the USA women’s Olympic basketball team, there will be plenty of eyes on Monday’s performance with the Indiana Fever.
Clark continues her rookie campaign when Indiana travels to Mohegan Sun Arena to take on the Connecticut Sun, owners of the WNBA’s best record up to this point in the season.
Clark is coming off a career-high-tying 30 points in a win over the Mystics on Friday, but the Sun’s stifling defense presents plenty of challenges for this year’s No. 1 pick. In two earlier meetings with Connecticut, Clark posted averages of 18.5 points while shooting just 38.5 percent from the field.
What will Clark do in her third meeting with the Sun? Here are her stats and highlights from the matchup.
