    Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever took down the Phoenix Mercury in their return back from the WNBA's break for the 2024 Olympics.

    The Fever defeated the Mercury 98-89 behind a masterful performance by Clark. The rookie finished the game with 29 points, 10 assists, and five rebounds.

    Following the matchup, Clark was seen greeting Indiana Pacers NBA All-Star Tyrese Haliburton.

    The two have been extremely vocal about their support for one another, with Haliburton even commenting on Clark's performance during the game.

    "Hope y’all seeing what 22 doin at Gainbridge," Haliburton posted on social media.

    With the victory, the Fever advanced to 12-15 on the season and kept possession of the No. 7 seed in the WNBA rankings.

    Before the game, Clark was averaging 17.1 points and 8.2 assists per game, both of which led the rookie class.
