Reese, Chicago Sky and the Fever

Indiana Fever's New Post Causes a Stir About Caitlin Clark Ahead of Chicago Sky Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Indiana Fever are headed to the Windy City ahead of their Sunday afternoon showdown against their biggest WNBA rivals, the Chicago Sky.
C aitlin Clark did not play against the Chicago Sky on Sunday, but she still brought tears of joy to the fans who packed United Center to see her when the Indiana Fever came to town. According to play-by-play voice Ryan Ruocco on the ABC broadcast, Clark signed more than 200 autographs before the game tipped off.
A 55-year-old Texas man who told police he was in “an imaginary relationship” with WNBA star Caitlin Clark was sentenced to 2 1/2 years in prison after pleading guilty to stalking and harassing the Indiana Fever guard.
Caitlin Clark found herself in an all-too-familiar spot during Sunday's Fever-Sky showdown in Chicago—in street clothes and on the bench as she continues to deal with a groin injury that has kept her out for the past few weeks.
The Sky came into Sunday’s contest extremely shorthanded. Angel Reese sat out for a second consecutive game due to a back injury, joining Ariel Atkins, Moriah Jefferson and Hailey Van Lith on the injury list. Chicago was also without their starting point guard, Courtney Vandersloot, who underwent season-ending ACL surgery in June.
A Texas man has been sentenced for stalking and harassing WNBA star Caitlin Clark over social media. Michael Lewis, 55, was arrested and charged in Indianapolis in January for "sending numerous threats and sexually explicit messages" to the Indiana Fever player via his social media accounts, the Marion County Prosecutor's Office said.
The BIG3 basketball league and co-founder Ice Cube won't be making an aggressive play to sign Chicago Sky star Angel Reese like it did last year for Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark.
Indiana also took their next matchup on June 7 — a convincing 79-52 victory — but Clark missed the game due to a left quad injury. Since then, Clark has only appeared in nine of the Fever's 18 games after picking up separate injuries to her left groin and right groin.
