    Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever are one of the hottest teams in the league. Indiana has won eight of its last 10 games, but they're now walking into a tough matchup against the star-studded Las Vegas Aces.

    The Fever are currently 0-2 in the season series against Las Vegas. While the Aces have been one of the streakiest teams in the league, they came into the year as the back-to-back defending champions.

    Las Vegas is led by MVP frontrunner A'ja Wilson. She currently has the Aces in position to make another deep playoff run, with LV holding a 22-13 record at No. 4 in the WNBA standings.

    Caitlin Clark recently shared her thoughts on Wilson's incredible 2024 season. She believes Wilson is "unguardable" after competing against the Aces star center twice this season.

    Clark said when you face a player like Wilson you basically have to live with her talent and try to contain her as best as possible.

    “She’s pretty incredible," Clark said. "You watch her and it’s just unguardable… everybody in the league knows you can’t guard it, you basically live with what she’s going to do to you every single night. You contain it as best you can.”

    A'ja Wilson is currently averaging 27.3 points and 11.9 rebounds per game. She leads the WNBA in average points and is ranked at No. 2 in average rebounds behind Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese (13.1).

    The superstar has also been an incredible contributor on the defensive end. Wilson leads the WNBA with 2.7 blocks per game and is No. 3 in the league with 1.9 steals per game.

    Wilson hasn't just been a superstar in 2024. She was drafted in 2018 and has since become a two-time WNBA champion, two-time MVP, Finals MVP, two-time Defensive Player of the Year, and six-time WNBA All-Star.

    Since entering the league, Wilson has truly been "unguardable," in the words of Caitlin Clark.
