The Indiana Fever and the Chicago Sky squared off for the first time this season. Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese against each other for the first time in the WNBA. Add Aliyah Boston against Kamilla Cordoso for the first time since they were teamates on the 2022 South Carolina Gamecocks Womens Basketball team.Three of the top players from this year's rookie class and the number one overall pick from 2023. Now this was must see TV.
The Fever won the game 71-70. The Sky was favred by 3 and the total was 162.5. The Fever covered and the game went under. This was the first game of the Commisioner Cup. This is a in game event that coveres a five game period. The team foem each cobference with th best record will play against each other for the cup. This concept adds more signifigance to the regulat season.
Afterwards,Angel Resse did not speak to the media. She played a decent game by only shooting 2-9 from the field with 8 points. She was outstanding on the boards with 13 rebounds. Clark shot 4-11 from the floor and finished with a solid line of eleven points,8 rebounds and 6 assists.
Takeaways from the game.
Reese is ahead of Clark in terms of consistency. She cleans the glass every game. Clark idoes not make the clean looks that she gets and her scoring average suffers because of it.
The WNBA did not help the Fever with scheduling. The Fever have played more games than anyone else and had only one practice so far. Most of their work is done through film sessions and shoot arounds.
Top teams in the WNBA are the Connecticutt Sun at 7-0,MNew York Liberty 6-2 and the Minnesota Lynx 5-2.
Breanna Stewart and Napheesa Collier are starting a women's 3 on 3 baketball league in January 1025. It will consist of 6 teams with 5 players on each squad. The compensation for playing will be among the top in womens professional basketball. It also serves as an option to players traveling overseas to play during the WNBA off season. The rules will be released at a later date. I expect many of the top players to participate.
