Caitlin Clark only scored in 3 points in the loss.
aitlin Clark, encountered a rare off night in her young WNBA career. Playing for the Indiana Fever, Clark struggled significantly in a 104-68 loss to the New York Liberty on Sunday.
Throughout her collegiate career at Iowa, Clark consistently posted impressive scoring numbers, with only one instance of scoring under ten points – during her freshman year against Northwestern. Transitioning to the professional stage, Clark has maintained an impressive average of nearly 17 points per game leading up to Sunday’s game.
However, the match against the Liberty proved to be a different story. Clark managed to score just three points, shooting 1 for 10 from the field and 1 for 7 from three-point range. This performance marks her lowest scoring game since records have been kept, a stark contrast to her usual high standards.
Despite the off night, Clark contributed five assists and committed only three turnovers, showing flashes of her playmaking abilities. The Fever, however, struggled to compete against the Eastern Conference champions, resulting in a heavy defeat.
Clark couldn’t bounce back after Sky game
Clark’s subpar performance followed a physically and mentally taxing game against the Chicago Sky on Saturday, where she was involved in a controversial incident with Sky guard Chennedy Carter. The altercation drew significant attention on social media and may have influenced Clark’s focus and performance.

Adding to the challenge, the Fever’s demanding schedule has seen them play eleven games in the first 20 days of the season, a stark difference from teams like the Las Vegas Aces, who have played only six. Clark, who recently concluded a rigorous college season that saw her lead Iowa to the national championship game, may be feeling the effects of this intense pace.
Despite this setback, Clark’s talent and determination suggest she will rebound quickly. With a four-day break before their next game against the Washington Mystics, Clark has an opportunity to rest and recalibrate. Expectations are high for her to return to her usual form.
