Caitlin Clark and her Indiana Fever squad are absolutely blazing right now, fresh off an exciting WNBA All-Star weekend and riding a serious wave of momentum right into our Emerald City. The Fever, sitting at a solid 17-10, are on a mission to keep climbing the league standings, but guess who is up next on their schedule? None other than our Seattle Storm, set to face off on Tuesday, July 28.
Clark’s Unstoppable Surge Hits Seattle
Before the All-Star break, Clark was on a tear, single-handedly fueling her team to three straight wins. We’re talking about some truly ridiculous numbers. She went off for a franchise record-breaking 45 points and 10 assists on July 17. Yeah, forty-five points! Then she followed that up with 17 points on July 18, and capped it off with a massive 27 points and 11 assists on July 22 against the Connecticut Sun. Her averages are looking strong too: 21.0 points, 7.9 assists, and 3.8 rebounds per game, shooting 43.5% from the field and 34.5% from three-point range. Our Storm (6-23) have their work cut out for them, no doubt.
What’s Next For The Blazing Fever
After their showdown with our Storm at 8:30 p.m. CT on ESPN, Clark and the Fever are still on the road. They head to face the Portland Fire on Friday, July 31, at 9 p.m. CT on ION. Then it’s a Sunday, August 2 matchup against the Minnesota Lynx at Noon CT on ABC. Mid-August brings them home for a clash with the Las Vegas Aces on Thursday, August 6, at 6 p.m. CT on Amazon Prime Video, before hitting the road again to take on the Chicago Sky at the United Center on Sunday, August 8.
So, get ready Seattle. This Tuesday, July 28, is going to be a real test for our Storm. Can they cool down Caitlin Clark’s hot streak? You know we’ll be watching every possession, cheering our squad on as they battle one of the league’s hottest teams. Don’t miss it!
