Sydney Taylor and the 13-win Sky have given the championship-hopeful Liberty more trouble than they should have this season.

Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark showed her appreciation for the fans who attended their win over the Atlanta Dream with a postgame gesture. Clark’s arrival in the WNBA with the Fever in 2023 completely transformed the franchise and the league, pushing them into the mainstream, and they are now among the most popular American sports leagues.

ESPN’s halftime coverage of Caitlin Clark’s Indiana Fever and Angel Reese’s Atlanta Dream matchup quickly became a story of its own. What was supposed to be a breakdown of a tightly contested game instead drew criticism from analysts and WNBA observers who felt the discussion leaned heavily toward Reese while Clark’s impact received comparatively little attention.

The Atlanta Dream were without a key player in their loss to the Indiana Fever.

The Fever celebrated Sophie Cunningham's 30th birthday with a cake after beating the Atlanta Dream 95-91 in an overtime thriller Sunday night.
