The Connecticut Sun spoiled Caitlin Clark's WNBA debut as the Indiana Fever lost 92-71 on Tuesday. Here are five takeaways from their season opener.
Connecticut benefitted from a well-balanced effort from its starting five while Indiana just didn't have enough quality to pull out a win.It wasn't a picture-perfect debut for the No. 1 overall pick, but there were flashes of what should be coming in the future. Clark started slow, playing just five minutes in the opening quarter and registering two fouls and an assist on 0-for-3 shooting.
Smith and 2023 No. 1 overall pick Aliyah Boston -- who also struggled with four points and six rebounds -- have all the talent to dominate down low on both ends of the floor, but becoming consistent is one of the key traits youngsters take time to hone.The Sun didn't need any sparks off the bench for this one. Four of the five starters eclipsed 13 points or more, with Brionna Jones' eight the lone exception.
