Caitlin Clark's return fueled the Indiana Fever's rise to the Commissioner's Cup lead––leaving them just one win away from clinching the Eastern Conference spot and heading to the championship game.

Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever were the first team to book a ticket to the final after beating the Connecticut Sun, 88-71. They won the Eastern Conference with a 4-1 record, thanks in part to the New York Liberty pulling off a comeback win against the Atlanta Dream.

It has taken just one game, but the Indiana Fever are once again near the top of the ESPN WNBA Power Rankings with a healthy Caitlin Clark.
