Caitlin Clark has continued on her hot streak, and this time, it comes in a heated matchup against the Indiana Fever and the Chicago Sky.
During the game, she was caught saying that the Sky had her “f*cked up” in a game that saw a lot of physical play and even had a cheap shot against Clark in the fourth quarter when she was dribbling down the court that sent her flying.

Of course, though, in traditional Caitlin Clark fashion, she rose above all the drama and delivered an amazing performance to help her team 100-81 win.
In 32 minutes played, she dropped 31 points, 12 assists, and four rebounds while shooting .556 from the three-point and .571 in field goal percentage. It’s certainly one of the best performances she has put on this season, even against fellow Rookie of the Year candidate Angel Reese.
Because of these two great rookies, it seems as though a pretty big rivalry has formed between the Sjy and Fever, as this isn’t the first major incident to happen between the two teams this year. Chennedy Carter of the Sky was seen earlier chirping and being physical with Clark in a matchup.
This year, Clark is leading all rookies in several important statistics. She ranks first in points per game, third in rebounds per game, first in assists per game, first in steals per game, and first in player efficiency rating.
However, one poor aspect of her game that can’t be overlooked is her turnovers. Right now, she averages 5.4 turnovers per game, with the next closest rookie sitting at 2.9. In fact, she has the most turnovers all-time by any rookie, with 174.
