Caitlin Clark Scores 22 as WNBA Fans Call Out Fever's 0-3 Start After Loss to Liberty

The Indiana Fever suffered a third straight loss to open their season on Saturday afternoon, falling 91-80 to the New York Liberty at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

One silver lining for the Fever was the play of Caitlin Clark, who wrapped up the most efficient game of her WNBA career so far. Clark dropped 22 points, with 15 coming in the first half.

She added six rebounds and eight assists, although she committed eight turnovers. Her efficiency looked similar to her college days at Iowa, shooting 52.9 percent from the field and 4-10 from three.

However, her performance wasn't enough to help the Fever overcome a Liberty team that advanced to the WNBA Finals in 2023. New York was led by Breanna Stewart, who finished with 24 points on 50 percent shooting.

The victory was a team effort though, as four other Liberty players scored at least 10 points. They also became the first team in WNBA history to have all five starters make multiple three-pointers in a game.

Fans were impressed with the dominant showing from the reigning Eastern Conference champions and called out the slow start to the season from Indiana.

The Fever currently sit at the bottom of the East standings. On the other hand, the Liberty remained unbeaten and are now 3-0 as they attempt to avenge their 2023 championship defeat.
