WASHINGTON (WISH) — Caitlin Clark hit a game-winning 31-foot three-point shot with 1.4 seconds remaining as the Fever beat the Mystics, 78-76.
The Fever were up by as many as 17 points in the third quarter, but the Mystics came all the way back to take the lead with 51 seconds remaining.
Kelsey Mitchell made a fastbreak layup off an assist from Clark with 11 seconds left and the Fever retook the lead. However, Mystics guard Sonia Citron knocked down two free throws after being fouled with four seconds left to put them up one point. Then, it was Clark’s game-winning three.
“We always think about ways we want to get better and we certainly crumbled a little bit and we would’ve liked to definitely have played the third a little bit better and not let them be back in the game, but this is a hard league to play in,” Clark said. “You take a win in whatever way you can get it. And when we go down the line here, nobody’s going to look back and be like, ‘Oh, well, the Fever probably should’ve lost this game but made a buzzer beater.’ No, it’s a W. It’s a win for us.”
The win moves the Fever to 2-1 in Commissioner’s Cup games.
Clark led the team with 19 points. Kelsey Mitchell (15 points) and Aliyah Boston (14 points) also scored in double figures.
Next up for the Fever is a home matchup against the Chicago Sky. Tipoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. on Thursday.
