ARLINGTON, Texas — Caitlin Clark had 28 points and 12 assists in a 100-93 win over the Dallas Wings on Sunday, lifting the Indiana Fever above .500 for the first time in five years.

The Fever, who had a 17-16 record with the win, had gone 189 games without a win, a WNBA record, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.

Indiana earned the win despite a record-tying nine 3-pointers by Arike Ogunbowale. Ogunbowale completed 9 of 16 from long range — bettering her previous career best of seven 3s — and scored 34 points.

The All-Star Game MVP missed two attempts for a record 10 three-pointers, including one when the Wings trailed by six in the final minute.

Ogunbowale, who tied a personal best with eight rebounds, tied the league record for 3-pointers held by Mitchell (2019) and Seattle’s Jewell Loyd (2023).

“I salute people like Arike because off the court we’re really good friends,” Fever guard Kelsey Mitchell said. “We usually train and practice together in the off-season. I wouldn’t expect anything less from someone like him.”

Mitchell scored 36 points, including a 3 to give the Fever a four-point lead with 1:58 remaining. Clark and Mitchell each made five 3s for a combined 10 of the 18 points as the Fever shot 50% from long range and 53% overall.

“When you have two guards that are both making plays, it puts the other team in a tough position of what to take away, who to put on who,” Clark said. “We definitely shoot it well. We play off each other well. We find each other and we get downhill. I think it’s a good balance of everything.”

Clark scored a personal best 31 points in a win over fellow Rookie of the Year candidate Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky.

She set a WNBA record with 19 assists during her first visit to Texas in the regular season, in the pre-Olympics game, when Indiana lost 101-93 as the Fever teetered on the brink of the playoffs.

Indiana is now firmly in the playoff mix, while the Wings (9-23) still hope to rebound from a slow start caused by several key injuries. Dallas, which won its first playoff series last year, is two games out of the final postseason spot with eight remaining.

The Fever are 6-1 since the Olympic break, with three of those victories coming on foreign soil. The reward is six straight home games, beginning Wednesday against the last-place Los Angeles Sparks before the season finale in Washington.

“They laid it out there. We keep talking about pumping our tank,” Indiana coach Christie Sides said. “The confidence they’re playing with, I’m proud of the road games. The road games were tough. We keep talking about momentum, keeping our foot on the gas.”

After making her eighth 3-pointer in the third quarter, Ogunbowale was called for a foul for failing to give Kelsey Mitchell a landing zone on a 3-pointer.

The Wings challenged and lost, leading to a technical foul on Ogunbowale. The Fever scored five points on that possession, cutting their deficit to 67-64 after Dallas had taken a big lead less than two minutes earlier, 64-55.

Mitchell made two more free throws after her crucial 3-0 lead, giving the Fever eight straight points to take a 99-91 lead with 39 seconds left.

Satou Sabally scored 25 points and Natasha Howard had 18 points and nine assists for the Wings. NaLyssa Smith had 14 points and eight rebounds for Indiana.
