Summary

  • 95-91 in overtime, Indiana beat Atlanta after Angel Reese missed a wide-open layup with the score tied 81-81 at the end of regulation.
  • Jared Stillman seized on that miss to argue Caitlin Clark and Reese are "not even in the same stratosphere," casting Clark as the WNBA's headliner and Reese as a supporting figure.
  • Clark backed the result with 26 points and 9 assists as Indiana stretched its winning streak to four and improved to 23-12, staying atop the Eastern Conference.
  • Reese still posted a 15-point, 14-rebound double-double for Atlanta, which fell to 21-13, but her late miss drew outsized scrutiny as playoff races tighten.
