Caitlin Clark’s presence has changed everything about the women’s sport — except the wins and losses for Indiana, which hasn’t made the playoffs since 2016 is now 0-2 in the Clark era.

Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark stands on the court in the first half of a WNBA basketball game against the New York Liberty, Thursday, May 16, 2024, in Indianapolis.

Fans watch Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark warm up for the team’s WNBA basketball game against the New York Liberty, Thursday, May 16, 2024, in Indianapolis. New York Liberty forward Jonquel Jones tries to block a shot by Indiana Fever forward Aliyah Boston in the first half of a WNBA basketball game, Thursday, May 16, 2024, in Indianapolis.

Two-time league MVP Breanna Stewart ruined Clark’s regular season home debut by scoring 31 points to lead the New York Liberty to a 102-66 win in front of a sellout crowd of 17,247. She picked up three fouls in the first half and a fourth early in the third quarter. When Clark went to the bench early in the second quarter, she took out her frustrations on a towel and at one point after a Fever miscue she flipped the ball over her head to the ref.

Sabrina Ionescu and Jonquel Jones each scored 14 for New York, which has won eight straight over Indiana. Jones also had 10 rebounds.
