Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever played Brittney Griner and the Atlanta Dream, looking to climb up the league standings.

The Fever have shown the potential to beat just about any team in the league, having previously defeated the Minnesota Lynx and the New York Liberty, but consistency has been an issue.

The Fever entered a matchup against the Dream having lost back-to-back games.

While they hit a road block, Clark was able to lead Indiana to victory over Atlanta, helping the Fever climb out of the hole. Indiana defeated the Dream, 99-82.

During the win over Atlanta, Clark got her name in the history books. According to Polymarket Hoops, Clark became the sixth fastest player in WNBA history to reach 950 career points.

Caitlin Clark finished the game against the Atlanta Dream, helping the Indiana Fever take down a team with Brittney Griner, Allisha Gray and Rhyne Howard, with 12 points, four rebounds and nine assists.

Griner capped off the game with 10 points, eight rebounds and one assist.

Heading into the matchup against the Atlanta Dream, Caitlin Clark was averaging 17.4 points, 5.0 rebounds and 8.6 assists per game.

Clark has had yet another successful year with the Indiana Fever, playing in her second season in the WNBA, but the Fever star has been plagued with injuries.

Indiana's star guard has dealt with a groin injury that kept her out five games and a leg injury that also had her sidelined for a handful of games.
