UNCASVILLE, Conn. -- As the clock ticked down on her rookie season, Caitlin Clark had one more 3-point heave in her to try and make an improbable comeback happen.

She pulled up from 27 feet, the Indiana Fever down 6 to the Connecticut Sun with 15 seconds remaining. The shot clanged off the back of the rim, bounced high in the air, hit the back iron and landed out of bounds.

That would be the last shot of her season, one that ended with an 87-81 loss to the Sun in Game 2 of the first round of the playoffs Wednesday night.
