Summary
Indiana snapped a two-game skid with an 83-71 win over Atlanta, holding the Dream to a season-low 71 points in the Fever's best defensive showing of 2026.
Clark vomited at halftime but returned to finish with 17 points, eight assists and seven rebounds, saying she felt better and lighter in the second half.
Atlanta shot a season-low 34.3% and managed only 29 first-half points, while Rhyne Howard scored eight and Allisha Gray 13 — both season lows.
Kelsey Mitchell added 25 points and passed 5,000 career points, while Aliyah Boston scored 19 as Indiana improved to 5-4 in its Commissioner's Cup opener.
The response followed a team meeting after Sunday's 100-84 loss to Portland, with players and coach Stephanie White pointing to harder conversations and sharper energy.
