Caitlin Clark earned her first win as a pro Friday against the Los Angeles Sparks, but the Indiana Fever (1-7) couldn’t string together a streak amid the toughest early schedule of any team in the WNBA. They fell to the Sparks, 88-82, on Tuesday after a two-day break — their longest of the short season — to begin a stretch of four games in six days. Clark scored a career-high 30 points with six assists, five rebounds, three steals and three blocks.
The seven losses are two more more than Clark and her Iowa team had in her 34-game senior season that capped a 109-30 collegiate record for Clark.
