Caitlin Clark Sends Clear Message After Fever Loss to Liberty: 'No Excuses'
Caitlin Clark said there are "no excuses" after the Indiana Fever lost to the Liberty amid a tough stretch of the WNBA schedule.
The Indiana Fever experienced a second loss in a row on Saturday night, falling to Breanna Stewart and the New York Liberty, 109-102. After the game, Caitlin Clark addressed the challenge of playing in the late-season stretch, emphasizing there are no excuses. Despite the tough schedule, including multiple back-to-backs, Clark maintained a positive outlook, stating they should view the loss as an opportunity to finish their road trip on a win.
The Fever had multiple players contributing to the loss, with Clark scoring 21 points, seven assists, four rebounds, and a steal, while Kelsey Mitchell and Aliyah Boston also had strong performances. However, the Liberty, currently among playoff contenders, proved too tough, as Indiana only outscored opponents in the second quarter.
The Fever's recent five-game winning streak ended, and they now sit fifth in the Eastern Conference standings. Indiana's next game is against the Chicago Sky, scheduled for Sunday at 7 p.m. ET in Chicago, highlighting the challenging period the team is facing in their playoff push.
