For the second time in her young WNBA career, guard Caitlin Clark was held without making a single three-pointer over an entire game during the Indiana Fever's 88-77 loss to the Golden State Valkyries.

Entering Thursday's game against the Valkyries, Clark had been hot since returning from a quad injury that caused her to miss five games. In her first game back, she tied her career-high with seven three-pointers made in a single game and scored 32 points while helping the Fever take down the previously undefeated New York Liberty. During her second game back, Clark scored 20 and went 4-6 on threes as Indiana defeated the Connecticut Sun.
