The loss amplified a lack of late-game resolve that had plagued the Fever even after Clark's return. Indiana was talented, no doubt, but it struggled to maintain leads and weather adversity in crunch time. Losing Clark again and losing to the Sparks in the same day cemented that this Fever team just couldn't catch a break.

Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark will miss her fourth-straight game with a left groin injury when the team ruled her out of Thursday's matchup versus the Las Vegas Aces.

Caitlin Clark might have been absent through injury but that didn’t stop the Indiana Fever from winning the WNBA Commissioner’s Cup on Tuesday.
