Caitlin Clark stats: How Indiana Fever star did vs. Sun

What encore did Caitlin Clark have in store after her dazzling return?

The Indiana Fever star was back in action as her team hosted the Connecticut Sun on Tuesday, June 17. While it wasn’t a major night like she had in the 102-88 win over the New York Liberty, it was another performance that led to an Indiana victory.

Clark scored a team-high 20 points on the night, her fourth time scoring at least 20 points in the six games she has played in 2025. She did stay hot from 3-point land as her first nine points came from behind the arc, and 12 of the 20 points were from deep as she knocked down some long-distance buckets. Since returning from injury, Clark is 11-for-20 (55.5%) in 3-pointers, reiterating she is a threat from way downtown.

She also had six assists, two steals and one rebound. Clark has recorded at least six assists in every game she’s played this season.

While it was a solid outing and Indiana cruised to an 88-71 victory, Clark did find herself in the center of some scuffles. It was a chippy contest, and late in the third quarter, she took an inadvertent shot to the head from Sun guard Jacy Sheldon. The two had been chirping at each other during the contest, and Clark pushed Sheldon following the play. But then Sun forward Marina Mabrey jumped in and pushed Clark down on the floor.

After hitting a deep 3-pointer late in the fourth quarter, Clark had some words for Connecticut.

It was a tense moment, and things did escalate later, but it was still a victory. The cherry on top? It clinches the Eastern Conference bid in the Commissioner’s Cup championship game for Indiana, offering the Fever a chance to win a mid-season title − and extra money − in July.
