Indiana Fever defeated the 93-58 Chicago Sky behind Kate Linklark's triple double for the 2025 WNBA season.
Clark picked up from where he left off in 2024. This year's Reagging Rookie of the Year did it all for the new look of the heat team on the Indianapolis home court.
Clark finished the game with 20 points after shooting 13-6 from the field with four maids three-pointers, adding 10 rebounds and 10 assists to lead his team to victory.

She was also doing it on the defensive side. I registered 4 blocks and 2 steel in 32 minutes.
And while Clark was the team's main goals scorer, she was with the help of fellow starters, including guard Kelsey Mitchell.

Aliya Boston, who built a great chemistry with Clark during the 2024 campaign, also had a double double, scoring 13 rebounds and 19 points in a 12-12 shooting.
Natasha Howard proved to be a problem with Chicago paint, scoring 15 points with five rebounds, two assists and three steels.
Chicago's Star Angel Reese struggled to start the season. She was only 14 from the field, but led the game with 17 rebounds. She finished with 12 points.

But it was a poor day of shooting all over the sky. The team shot 29.1% (79-23) to 46.7% of fever.
This is how new head coach Stephanie White wanted to kick off the season, using Clark to pinned the offense with multiple scoring options.
However, there was a moment during the match, but tensions rose and Clark was asked for a terrible foul after intentionally fouling Reese with paint. Reese also didn't take it lightly. I got up from the court and headed to Clark, where I wasn't looking for conflict.

The referee reviewed a general foul and upgraded it to Fragrant after seeing Clark's left arm appear to be pushing the lease back. Reese won two free throws that hold Chicago.
