INDIANAPOLIS — Caitlin Clark looked re-energized after taking a month off for the WNBA Olympic break.
The Phoenix Mercury’s three U.S. Olympic team members couldn’t keep up with her Friday night.
Clark scored 13 of her 29 points in the first quarter, added 10 assists and four 3-pointers and helped the Indiana Fever fend off Phoenix’s furious second-half rally to restart the season with a critical 98-89 victory.
“You knew they were going to come in here with a lot of confidence, with three people that have won gold medals,” said Clark, who was left off the Olympic roster. “You know their confidence is really high and I thought we came out and really set the tone.”
