Caitlin Clark went through her toughest shooting night of the season as the Indiana Fever lost 88-77 to the Golden State Valkyries on Thursday. But according to teammate Kelsey Mitchell, Clark’s struggles weren’t the only reason for the Fever's sixth loss of the season.Mitchell, on a one-year, $249,244 contract, pinned the blame on the team’s lack of aggression."It’s not about CC specifically. … We were soft. … They made us pay by being stronger, tougher. … We allowed it, kind of tucked our tail a little bit on aggression side. … Be aggressive, and stop being so soft. As a group, we just collectively allowed too much," Mitchell said.The Fever’s “soft” gameplay was evident in the numbers. The Valkyries recorded 10 steals and five blocks, while forcing Indiana to commit 16 turnovers — more than their season average.Needless to say, Caitlin Clark’s off night didn’t help either. She recorded a near triple-double with 11 points, seven rebounds and nine assists but struggled massively with her efficiency, shooting just 3 of 14 and turning the ball over six times.Caitlin Clark expresses frustration after being unable to catch Game 6 of NBA FinalsCaitlin Clark has been a regular attendee throughout the NBA playoffs, frequently spotted at Gainbridge Fieldhouse cheering on the Indiana Pacers.However, with the Indiana Fever on a three-game road trip, Clark couldn’t attend the do-or-die Game 6 of the NBA Finals against the OKC Thunder.“I wish it didn’t fall on the same night as us, but I feel good about the Pacers here in Game 6, Clark said. “I think they’re gonna push it to a Game 7. I think all basketball fans would appreciate a Game 7 in OKC.“I wish I could be there. Obviously, I’ve been supporting them all playoffs, and it’s been amazing to see what they’ve accomplished. But I have to focus on my team and our season right now.”The Pacers didn’t disappoint Caitlin Clark and their fans. Despite an injury scare for Tyrese Haliburton, they clinched a commanding 108-91 victory.Pascal Siakam’s 16-point, 13-rebound double-double played a key role in forcing a decisive Game 7 on Sunday in Oklahoma City. However, with the Fever set to play the Las Vegas Aces that same day, Clark is unlikely to attend the contest in person.
