Fever break franchise record with 123 points, but Caitlin Clark moves to 1 technical foul from suspension

It was a historic win for the Indiana Fever on Wednesday, but not without its costs.

The Fever broke a franchise scoring record in a 123-88 blowout win over the Connecticut Sun, topping a previous high of 114 points set in an overtime win against the Chicago Sky on June 11. They also tied a WNBA record with their 11th 100-point game of the season.

That total was four points shy of the WNBA single-game record and two points short of the regulation record. Caitlin Clark was the conductor for much of that success, finishing the game with 27 points on 8-of-13 shooting and 11 assists in 27 minutes.

However, Clark also picked up her seventh technical foul of the season.

If she picks up one more tech this season, with 17 games left to play, she will face an automatic one-game suspension. She and rival Angel Reese are tied for the WNBA lead in techs at seven.

Clark picked up the technical foul as part of a double tech alongside Connecticut’s Saniya Rivers. The two could be seen exchanging words after Clark picked up a foul on a drive, with the Fever star appearing to point to a scoreboard that read 95-67 Indiana.

Clark did not play at all in the fourth quarter. The tech could still be rescinded by the WNBA if it decides it wasn’t warranted.

Clark’s co-stars Kelsey Mitchell (23 points) and Aliyah Boston (22 points) also scored in bunches. As a team, the Fever shot 61.6% from the field and 50% from 3-point range, while also outrebounding the Sun 47-35.

All of that is part of a league-wide boom in offense. The WNBA has already seen more than double the number of 100-point games than it did in 2025, and the Fever are on pace to break the season scoring record with 95.5 points per game.
