Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark faced each other for the first time on a WNBA court on Saturday, but it was veteran Kelsey Mitchell who seized the spotlight in the Indiana Fever's 71–70 win.
The seventh-year guard led Indian with 18 points. Surprisingly, Mitchell went scoreless in the first quarter but picked it up in the second and fourth frames, becoming more aggressive going to the basket. NaLyssa Smith added 17 points and nine rebounds for the Fever, who won their second game of the season.
Clark scored 11 points with eight rebounds, but struggled with her shot after hitting her first two three-pointers.
