Caitlin Clark returns to action Wednesday: How to watch Indiana Fever vs. Las Vegas Aces

Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever (19-17) are back in action Wednesday as they face the WNBA defending champions, the Las Vegas Aces (22-13), at home.
The Fever has struggled against the Aces this season, falling by double digits in their previous meetings on May 25 and July 2. However, Indiana has looked like a different team in the second half of the season, winning eight of its last 10 games since the Olympic break, with its two losses coming against the No. 2 Minnesota Lynx.
The Fever enter the matchup on a high note following a comeback win in overtime against the Dream. Meanwhile, the Aces will be looking to bounce back after a narrow 71-75 defeat at the hands of the top-of-the-table New York Liberty. Aces star A’ja Wilson sat out that game with an ankle injury and was seen in a walking boot. Wilson’s injury status is still to be determined for the Fever game, but her absence would be a significant blow to the Aces squad.
Clark is also closing in on the WNBA rookie scoring record. With her 26 points against the Atlanta Dream on Sunday, the Rookie of the Year favorite is now second on the all-time list, just 52 points behind Seimone Augustus' record-setting 744 points. With four more games this regular season, the record seems well within Clark's reach.
Both teams have already secured a spot in the playoffs, with the Aces currently holding the No.4 seed and the Fever sitting at No. 6.
The teams will also face off again later this week, playing a Friday evening rematch in Indianapolis.

Caitlin Clark stats last game
Clark recorded 26 points, 12 assists and five rebounds Sunday to set a franchise record of 14 double-doubles in a single season and help the Fever overcome a 16-point deficit against the Dream. However, the Rookie of the Year favorite contributed nine turnovers – the most since her debut game.
Clark’s 26 points moved her to second on the WNBA rookie all-time scoring list, with 692 points this season. After surpassing Wilson’s 682 points, Clark is now just 52 points behind Seimone Augustus' 744 points, a record set in 2006.
