Summary
The Indiana Fever dropped to 1-2 on the season after a 104-102 overtime loss to the Washington Mystics at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. Caitlin Clark scored 32 points and exploded for 17 in the fourth quarter, including a game-tying 3-pointer to force overtime. But Indiana struggled defensively throughout the night, allowing 58 points in the paint and another strong shooting performance from an opponent. The biggest storyline may be Aliyah Boston leaving in the third quarter with a lower leg injury. I break down Boston’s exit, Clark finding her rhythm, the Fever’s defensive issues, Stephanie White’s postgame comments and what comes next during this difficult early-season stretch. ----- Follow Scott on Twitter and Instagram , and read his work on fieldhousefiles.com .
