The game was of little consequence, as Indiana had already secured the sixth seed in the playoffs. The Fever will face third-seeded Connecticut in the first round. The series will be a best of three, with the first two games played in Connecticut. If a Game 3 is needed, Indiana will host it.

Clark played less than 20 minutes Thursday in Washington, a move Fever coach Christie Sides warned during Thursday’s pregame when she said the team would be extra cautious with all of its starters. Clark shot 2 of 5 from the field, with both of her shots coming from 3s. She also had five rebounds and one steal.

Clark finished the regular season averaging 19.2 points, 8.4 assists, 5.7 rebounds and 1.3 steals, bests in the league. (Clark also led the league in turnovers, with 5.6 per game, but it’s common for guards who handle the ball to top that stat category as well.) She broke numerous records in her first year as a pro and is the odds-on favorite to win the Rookie of the Year award next week, when all the league awards are announced.
