Tonight, Seattle witnessed a heated game between the Fever and the Storm until the hosts got the better of the visitors. In their third meeting of the season, Caitlin Clark created yet another record. But courtesy of Jewell Loyd, the celebrations could not continue for long as Seattle won 89-77 over the Fever. Hence, the Fever fans riled up once again after the subpar performance of their players.
After tonight’s game, Caitlin Clark tallies 308 points, 104 rebounds, and 126 assists for the season, the only player with those numbers. Indeed, as a rookie with all eyes on her, many would agree that this was quite a huge achievement after 19 games into the professional league. However, there were black clouds of the Storm lurking over this feat tonight. Seattle’s veteran guard, Jewell Loyd had a season-high 34 points. With this, she, almost single-handedly, pushed the hosts toward victory.

While the Fever fans would be delighted at how amazing their first overall pick is doing in her rookie season, their continuous defeats are, of course, depressing. Hence, a WNBA follower came up to the comment section, expressing their disappointment with the head coach and the team. They suggested that the coach does not understand how to use the offensive strengths of the rookie, who once again topped the team scoring charts.
“Your coach has absolutely no clue on how to use caitlin clark. It’s sad to watch the scheme. There is no movement on the court and the screens that the fever setup up are not even screens. Before a screen is set players run away not allowing the screen to develop. Bad.”
For now, Indiana will continue their journey to the Footprint Center where Diana Taurasi and the squad are waiting for them. With no time to practice or lose, it will be interesting to see how Caitlin Clark will tackle this slope.
