The Indiana Fever didn’t just beat the Las Vegas Aces on Sunday night. They obliterated them. Final score: 109-75. A 34-point blowout. This, one day after the Aces won by 48 points themselves. The whiplash was real.
Caitlin Clark, fresh off a back injury that sidelined her for a few games, looked like she never missed a beat. She put up 12 points, 7 rebounds, and 6 assists in just 24 minutes. But the real headline is this: she became the fastest player in WNBA history to reach 600 career assists. She did it in 72 games. The previous record holder? Nobody did it that quick.
Clark’s minutes were split with backup Tyasha Harris, and the move worked perfectly. Harris added 10 points, 2 rebounds, 2 assists, and a steal in 23 minutes. First-round pick Raven Johnson only saw 3 minutes of action. That’s just how the rotation shook out on this night.
Kelsey Mitchell Keeps Making History Too
While Clark got the assist record, Kelsey Mitchell was busy putting up 27 points with 3 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 steals. She also set a Fever franchise record by scoring 10 or more points in 38 straight games. That broke a tie with Tamika Catchings, which is basically Fever royalty. Mitchell has been quietly incredible all season.
Sophie Cunningham came off the bench and caught fire from deep. She went 6-of-7 from 3-point range and finished with 20 points. That kind of shooting off the bench is exactly what the Fever needed to put this one away early.
The Fever are now 14-9, sitting at the top of the Eastern Conference standings. That’s a big turnaround from where they were a year ago. But the schedule doesn’t let up.
Next up is a home game against the Valkyries on July 15th at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. That tips at 8PM ET. The Valkyries are one of the better teams out West, so this will be a real test of where Indiana stands.
But for now, the Fever can enjoy this one. They beat a really good Aces team by 34 points. Clark got another record. Mitchell extended her streak. The bench showed up. It was just a complete performance.
