CHICAGO (AP) — Angel Reese pulled off the best performance of her young career to help the Chicago Sky rally past the Indiana Fever and old college rival Caitlin Clark.

A game featuring some of the WNBA’s brightest young stars delivered in a huge way.

Reese had her best outing. She scored a career-high 25 points to go with 16 rebounds in her eighth consecutive double-double in an 88-87 win and the Sky's first victory over the Fever in three tries this season. They lost the first two games at Indiana.

Clark, meanwhile, finished with 17 points and a franchise-record 13 assists. She made five 3s and grabbed six rebounds, but the Fever couldn’t hang on after winning their previous four games.
