Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever faced the Seattle Storm in a high-stakes WNBA clash today. This was just the second game that Clark suited up for after the Olympics. The phenom came out all guns blazing against Phoenix on Saturday and ended the game with 29 points.

However, Clark had a slow start against Seattle. By halftime, she was able to score only 8 points on 3 of 10 shooting from the field. What was even more surprising was the fact that she only had 2 assists in the first half and missed all of her three-point shots.

However, Clark got back her rhythm in the second half of the game. In just over 35 minutes in the game, she scored 23 points, making 9 of her 19 shots in the game and 6 of her 9 shots in the second half, and converted 3 of her 5 three-point shots in the last two quarters. Clark also had 9 assists in the game.

The Indiana Fever defeated the Seattle Storm by 92-75. The Storm were trailing by just one point by the end of the third quarter. However, the Fever outscored them 33-17 in the fourth quarter. The Fever team is 2-0 after the Olympic break and Clark is averaging 26 points and 9.5 assists per game in the first two games.

Caitlin Clark speaks about signing autographs for fans

Caitlin Clark has fueled the popularity of the WNBA since she arrived on the stage. From increasing viewership to teams having sold-out games, the effect is simply a never-before-seen phenomenon in the WNBA.

However, amidst her growing popularity, Clark has always given fans their due. When a reporter asked about signing autographs, Clark came up with a heartwarming response:

"It puts into perspective how special these moments are for people -- whether they meet you or not. Getting to enjoy this environment and this experience of the game it what really makes lifelong memories for them."

She also said that her mother gave a fan her rookie card at the Kansas City airport which brought out an emotional reaction. Clark later met the fan in the tunnel.
