Caitlin Clark leads Fever to 88-82 comeback win

Caitlin Clark recorded 15 points, 12 assists, and nine rebounds as the Indiana Fever staged a comeback to win 88-82 against the Phoenix Mercury on Sunday.

Despite shooting 4 of 14 from the field and 2 of 10 from beyond the arc, Clark sank crucial free throws in the final seconds to secure the victory for the Fever, who had trailed by 15 points in the first half.

Key baskets from Kelsey Mitchell and strong performances from Aliyah Boston, NaLyssa Smith, and Temi Fagbenle helped Indiana secure the win. Brittney Griner, Diana Taurasi, and Natasha Cloud led the scoring for Phoenix.
