The Indiana Fever bounced back on Monday night, beating the Phoenix Mercury 86-77 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. Indiana improved to 10-7 on the season and currently sit sixth in the WNBA standings, three games behind the Minnesota Lynx.

The Fever needed a response after dropping back-to-back games to the Atlanta Dream, and Caitlin Clark again led the way.

Clark finished with 24 points, eight assists, and three rebounds, marking her third straight game leading Indiana in scoring after previously putting up 26 points in consecutive games against Atlanta. The former No. 1 overall pick also achieved a milestone that no other player in WNBA history can boast of.

After the win, the Fever announced that Clark is now the first ever WNBA player to score at least 20 points and five assists in six consecutive games.

“Caitlin Clark’s sixth-straight game with 20+ points & 5+ assists is the longest streak in WNBA history,” the team posted on X.

Indiana also used the moment to urge fans to vote Clark into the 2026 WNBA All-Star Game.

The first fan voting returns released last week showed Clark fifth overall with 253,602 votes, trailing A’ja Wilson, Paige Bueckers, Aliyah Boston and Breanna Stewart. If selected, Clark would make her third straight All-Star appearance.

Clark is averaging 21.3 points, 8.2 assists and 4.3 rebounds this season, the highest scoring average of her young WNBA career. She is also shooting 42.6% from the field, another career high for the 24-year-old guard.

The Fever will now try to make it consecutive wins when they host Phoenix again on Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. ET.
