Sports analyst Dan Dakich criticized Indiana Fever head coach Stephanie White for her vague response to a GOP letter sent to the WNBA. This letter discussed concerns regarding Caitlin Clark’s treatment, with some reports indicating racial motivations behind certain attacks. Dakich expressed disappointment over the coach’s lack of defense for her star player and noted the league’s insufficient support despite congressional involvement in the issue.

Her teammate, Kelsey Mitchell, contributed 23 points, helping the Fever set a franchise record for points scored in a single game. Aliyah Boston, the top pick in the 2023 WNBA Draft, added 22 points for Indiana.
