UNCASVILLE, Conn. — Caitlin Clark did all she could to help the Indiana Fever stave off elimination. It just wasn't enough. The sensational rookie scored 25 points and had nine assists in Indiana's 87-81 loss to Connecticut in Game 2. A much better night than her playoff debut when she had just 11 points on 4 of 17 shooting. Clark had a record-breaking season on and off the court. She broke the single-season assist record as well as setting the league's individual game mark with 19. Despite the blowout loss, fans tuned in. It was the most watched playoff game on ESPN ever despite going up against the NFL.
