The Indiana Fever suffered a third straight loss to open their season on Saturday afternoon, falling 91-80 to the New York Liberty at Barclays Center in Brooklyn.

One silver lining for the Fever was the play of Caitlin Clark, who wrapped up the most efficient game of her WNBA career so far. Clark dropped 22 points, with 15 coming in the first half.

She added six rebounds and eight assists, although she committed eight turnovers. Her efficiency looked similar to her college days at Iowa, shooting 52.9 percent from the field and 4-10 from three.

Reports of Caitlin Clark's demise were greatly exaggerated. Indiana has a lot of work to do, especially defensively, but Caitlin looked really good today. <a href="">#WNBA</a>

The most impressive game by Caitlin Clark in her short 3 game professional career so far. 🔥🔥 nice to see her getting a rhythm. The team will all come into rhythm eventually. Gotta make some shots. <a href="">#Fever</a> <a href="">#WNBA</a>

Caitlin Clark was the best player on the floor today. On both teams. Not even joking. <br><br>But the NY Liberty are deep and were in the finals.

One thing is sure, Caitlin Clark is going to be a problem in the wnba.

However, her performance wasn't enough to help the Fever overcome a Liberty team that advanced to the WNBA Finals in 2023. New York was led by Breanna Stewart, who finished with 24 points on 50 percent shooting.

The victory was a team effort though, as four other Liberty players scored at least 10 points. They also became the first team in WNBA history to have all five starters make multiple three-pointers in a game.

Some history: The Liberty are the first team in WNBA history to have all five starters make multiple 3-pointers in a game, per <a href="">@ESPNStatsInfo</a>

Fans were impressed with the dominant showing from the reigning Eastern Conference champions and called out the slow start to the season from Indiana.

The entire New York Liberty team to the Indiana Fever <a href="">

The Fever currently sit at the bottom of the East standings. On the other hand, the Liberty remained unbeaten and are now 3-0 as they attempt to avenge their 2023 championship defeat.
