In the much-hyped WNBA (Women's National Basketball Association) match between Chicago Sky and Indiana Fever lived up to the expectations. Fans witnessed yet another faceoff between Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese as the Chicago Sky forward went all in against the WNBA rookie. Reese, the former LSU star who was vocal about her ‘rival’ feelings for former Iowa star Clark delivered a hard blow to the Indian Fever’s guards’ head as Clark drove to the basket in the third quarter.
