Basketball fans called out Reese for the dirty play on Clark:

At any rate, Clark got the last laugh as the Fever held on for a close 71-70 victory to pick up their second win of the season. Marina Mabrey of Chicago missed the first of two free throws with 6.1 seconds remaining, though she made the second to cut the lead to one.

The Fever were able to run out the clock, however, to escape with a victory. With the loss, Angel Reese and the Sky fell to 3-4 on the season, while Indiana moved to 2-8 and snapped a three-game losing streak.

Angel Reese had eight points, 13 rebounds and one assist in the game. As for Clark, she finished with 11 points, eight rebounds and six assists.

Angel Reese & Caitlin Clark Will Meet 3 More Times This Season

Reese vs. Clark has emerged as one of the best one-on-one sports rivalries over the past year, and it all started back in college a year ago.

The LSU Tigers and Clark’s Iowa Hawkeyes met in the 2023 NCAA national championship game, with Reese and company emerging victorious. However, Clark’s squad got some comeuppance with a victory in this year’s Elite Eight showdown.

Indiana and Chicago will next square off on June 16, with that game airing at noon EST on CBS. A week later, the Sky will play host to the Fever in a 6:00 p.m. EST game that ill air on NBA TV. Their season series will wrap up in Chicago on Aug. 30.

VIDEO: Caitlin Clark Goes Down With Frightening Leg Injury During Game, And It Does Not Look Good

The hopes and dreams of the WNBA were almost dashed after Caitlin Clark went down with a concerning injury.

While the Indiana Fever were taking on the Atlanta Dream on the road, a play in the second quarter had fans holding their breath.

In the second quarter, Clark was trying to stay on her defense assignment when she suddenly twisted her ankle in a terrible way, which immediately sent her down to the ground in obvious pain.

She immediately grabbed her left ankle and had a look on her face like she thought something was terribly wrong as she lay down on the court.

She would stay on the court for several minutes before teammates, and some of the coaching staff helped her up.

Caitlin Clark let everyone know she could walk on her own as she made her way to the sidelines.

Clark likely had her ankles taped, and after missing a few plays, she would eventually return to the game in the same quarter.

Things could’ve been a lot worse, but she appeared to escape injury.

That ankle will surely be put in an ice bath for several hours.

Caitlin Clark And The Indiana Fever Had Been Rolling Since The Olympic Break

Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever have come out strong post-Olympic break, winning two out of three games.

Clark, in particular, has been sensational. She delivered an incredible 29-point, 10-assist performance in the victory over the Phoenix Mercury, which was followed by her dropping 23 points and 9 assists in the win against Seattle, per ESPN.

Clark and the Fever are rolling at the right time as they enter a crucial stretch with several winnable games on the horizon.
