Caitlin Clark made a resounding statement to Angel Reese and the WNBA on May 17, proving there are levels to the game as the Indiana Fever demolished the Chicago Sky 93-58 in their season opener at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

The 35-point blowout, aired on ABC, showcased Clark’s dominance over her rival Reese, setting a commanding tone for the Fever’s 2025 campaign. The highly anticipated matchup, fueled by their college rivalry, saw Clark cement her status as a league superstar in her sophomore year.

Caitlin Clark is “Most Popular Athlete in America” according to Commissioner Cathy Engelbert

Clark delivered a stellar triple-double, tallying 20 points, 10 assists, and 10 rebounds, as highlighted by the Indiana Fever’s official X account. “A triple-double for Caitlin Clark on opening day,” the team celebrated, marking her third career triple-double, trailing only Alyssa Thomas (15) and Sabrina Ionescu (4) in WNBA history, per FeverStats.

Clark’s efficiency was on display, shooting 4-of-10 from the field and a perfect 4-of-4 from the free-throw line while logging 41 minutes, as noted in earlier posts. Her all-around performance underscored her evolution after a 2024 rookie season where she averaged 19.2 points, 8.5 assists, and 5.8 rebounds.

Reese no match for Clark: Fever crush Sky 93-58 to start season

Reese, representing the Sky, recorded a double-double with 10 points and 15 rebounds, according to BronMuse on X. However, her offensive struggles were evident, shooting just 3-of-10 from the field and committing three turnovers. The Sky’s 58 points were their lowest in a season opener since 2016, dwarfed by the Fever’s balanced attack, where Aliyah Boston contributed 14 points and eight rebounds. The Fever’s 35-point margin sent shockwaves through the league, amplified by a flagrant foul from Clark on Reese that added tension to their rivalry, as reported by The Athletic.

Fans on X were abuzz, with one user declaring, “Caitlin Clark just showed Angel Reese there are levels to this game!” The rivalry, which began when Reese’s LSU defeated Clark’s Iowa in the 2023 NCAA Championship, added extra stakes to the opener. Reese, who averaged 13.6 points and 10.1 rebounds in her 2024 rookie season, couldn’t keep pace with Clark’s relentless pace. The Fever’s decisive victory highlighted their growth under new coach Stephanie White, while the Sky, led by new coach Tyler Marsh, faced a harsh reality check in their first game of the season.
