Caitlin Clark scored 16 points, but the favorite to win Rookie of the Year couldn’t lead her team to a win as the Indiana Fever dropped an 86-75 decision to the Las Vegas Aces Wednesday in Indianapolis.
The teams meet again Friday.
Clark also dished six assists and grabbed three rebounds, but shot just 6-of-22, including 1-of-10 from 3, one of her worst shooting performances of the season.
Kelsey Mitchell led Indiana with 24 points.
Clark and the Fever have been on a tear lately, with Clark averaging 25 points over the 10 previous games before Wednesday. The Fever have already secured a playoff spot, their first since 2016.
The Aces were led by MVP favorite A’ja Wilson, who finished with 27 points, 12 rebounds and three blocks.
Wilson broke the WNBA single-season scoring record late in the first half on a 15-footer. With five games left in the regular season Wilson has 956 points. Seattle’s Jewell Loyd scored 939 last season.
