Fever Set Franchise Scoring Record; Clark One Technical From Suspension

Being one technical foul from an automatic one‑game suspension creates a near‑term availability risk for the Fever ahead of the All‑Star break.

Overview

  • The Indiana Fever routed the Connecticut Sun 123-88 on Wednesday, scoring a franchise‑record 123 points and a franchise‑record 70 in the first half.
  • Caitlin Clark finished with 27 points and 11 assists in 27 minutes while still on a documented minutes‑management plan for a lingering back issue.
  • Clark was assessed her seventh technical foul after a verbal exchange with Saniya Rivers and now sits one technical away from an automatic one‑game suspension under WNBA rules.
  • Kelsey Mitchell (23 points) and Aliyah Boston (22 points) plus balanced bench scoring helped the Fever sustain the blowout and enter the All‑Star break 17-10 and atop the Eastern Conference.
  • Clark’s naming as the NBA 2K27 Deluxe Edition cover athlete heightens public attention on her on‑court conduct and availability as Indiana begins the stretch run.
