Paige Bueckers and Caitlin Clark faced off in their first WNBA matchup on Sunday.

On a minute restriction in her third game back from lower-body injuries, Clark had her second career game with at least 10 points, 10 assists, and five steals in this contest.

Her playing a ton of minutes was not needed on this day.

Behind a strong second quarter, Clark and the Indiana Fever earned a blowout 102-83 win over Bueckers and the Dallas Wings on July 13 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.

Bueckers finished with a game-high 21 points in the first WNBA matchup between the No. 1 picks of the 2024 and 2025 WNBA Draft.

After the contest, Bueckers was really not in the mood to speak about Caitlin.

Following a question about Clark on her defense, she looked quite annoyed and did not really give an answer.
