The only downside of this highly anticipated matchup is the fact that the Fever will be without superstar point guard Caitlin Clark, who will miss her fourth straight game due to a quad injury.
On Friday, the Fever put up an Instagram post about Clark that included some basic information and interesting facts about the 23-year-old. The intention of the post was for the fans to get to know the reigning WNBA Rookie of the Year on a more personal level.
For some reason, though, the Fever decided to keep one particular field blank. The team did not list anything under Clark's "Fun Facts," which drew a hilarious admission from the former Iowa star.
"Not a fun fact type of gal," she wrote in the comments section.
Clark's statement quickly drew the attention of fans as they expressed their reaction to the Fever star's admission.

"ok cc 😞" a comment read.
"false!" said another.
"you play too much stop the cap," a user wrote.

"most boring fact about you?" a reaction read.
"OMG forgot that's the one thing I don't like about CC," another said.
"how can you not juggle?!" asked a fan, referring to Clark revealing that this is the one skill she'd like to learn.
Clark clearly doesn't take herself too seriously, and she obviously likes to have her fun on social media. There's no denying, however, that she's all business when she's on the basketball court.
The good news is that the fans could see her serious side again very soon, with Clark potentially returning in Indiana's next game on Tuesday against the Atlanta Dream.

The Thunder have been exceptional after losses all season. The Pacers know what awaits in Game 2
Associated Press OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — When the Oklahoma City Thunder get hit, they tend to hit back. Immediately, too. Everybody knows what probably is coming in Game 2 of the NBA Finals on Sunday night. The Thunder, down 1-0 in the series with the Indiana Pacers, will be raring to go. That's been their way all season; the Thunder are 17-2, including the NBA Cup final loss, in the next game after a defeat — with those 17 wins coming by an average of 17.5 points. The thing is, the Thunder say that's the way they play after wins as well. 'That's the trick,' coach Mark Daigneault said Saturday. 'You don't want to be reactive to the last game because then you can be too high after wins, you can be too low after losses. We just get ourselves to neutral. Understand every game is different, every game is unwritten. You go out there, the ball goes up in the air, and the team that competes better on that night wins.' As such, Oklahoma City will try to be better Sunday. And so will Indiana. There was much for both teams to clean up after Game 1. For the Pacers, it was too many turnovers. For the Thunder, it was not closing out a game that it led by 15 with less than 10 minutes remaining. 'Look, everybody's pattern after a loss is to come more aggressively. … Their whole team is going to be even more aggressive defensively,' Pacers coach Rick Carlisle said. 'The challenge for us is to be able to match that.' Thunder guard and NBA MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander — who led all scorers with 38 points in Game 1, his finals debut — said he doesn't hang on to games for too long, even that one. He watches film, learns the lessons and moves on. He doesn't expect to deviate from that plan for Game 2. 'I take what I need to take from it, and we do it as a group,' Gilgeous-Alexander said. 'After that, I let it go because the lessons are learned. There's nothing else you can do.' Chasing history The Pacers have an opportunity at something very rare: going up 2-0 in the finals by taking the first two games on the road. It's happened only twice in finals history: Chicago did it in 1993 against Phoenix and Houston did it in 1995 against Seattle. Both the Bulls and the Rockets went on to win the NBA title in those seasons. 'I think winning on the road is hard,' said Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton, who had the game-winning shot in Game 1 with 0.3 seconds left. 'Winning an NBA game is hard, and especially a playoff game, and let alone a finals game, right? It's not easy. You're just trying to be as present as you can.' The stakes The Thunder know their odds of winning this title take a serious dive if they lose Game 2 and head to Indianapolis trailing the series 2-0. So, technically, Sunday isn't a must-win game. There's a Game 3 on Wednesday no matter what and a Game 4 on Friday no matter what. But nobody needs to tell OKC the stakes right now. 'Game 1 was a must-win and we didn't win. Now we flip to Game 2 and it's a must-win again,' Thunder forward Chet Holmgren said. 'We've been in must-win situations in this playoff run, and honestly in the playoffs, every game feels like a must-win. You're not saving anything in the tank for any games down the line.' SGA, 3K Assuming he scores in Game 2 — obviously, a reasonable assumption — Gilgeous-Alexander will join a new club. The MVP is just two points shy of reaching the 3,000-point mark for the season, including playoffs. (If the NBA Cup final game counted, which it doesn't, he'd already be over 3,000 for the season.) This will be the 25th time a player has scored 3,000 in a season; Gilgeous-Alexander will be the 12th person to do it. Michael Jordan did it 10 times, Wilt Chamberlain did it five times and nine other players — Bob McAdoo, Elgin Baylor, James Harden, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Kevin Durant, Kobe Bryant, Luka Doncic, Rick Barry and Shaquille O'Neal — did it once. ___ AP NBA: recommended

Pacers vs. Thunder odds: Best bets, predictions for NBA Finals Game 2
The Indiana Pacers came into the 2025 NBA Finals as historic underdogs, but somehow managed to steal Game 1 from the Oklahoma City Thunder in a 111-110 thriller, thanks to Tyrese Haliburton's clutch shot with 0.3 seconds remaining. The Thunder are still the prohibitive favorites (-350 at BetMGM) to win the series, but Game 2 all of a sudden becomes a massive one for Oklahoma City. Oddsmakers know this as well, which is why the Thunder are 10.5-point home favorites in Game 2 with a total of 228.5. The betting public is backing the Pacers so far at BetMGM, with 69% of the wagers on Indiana to cover. Advertisement Let us not forget the bettor who wagered $1.05 million on Oklahoma City to win the series at -700 odds in Las Vegas at an MGM book on Wednesday night. He or she will be one of the Thunder's biggest fans on Sunday night. Yahoo Sports asked handicapper Michael Fiddle for his thoughts on some best bets for Game 2 of the finals: Game 2: Indiana Pacers at Oklahoma City Thunder (-10.5, 228.5) Fiddle: "I was on the over in Game 1, and while there was some late under money, the closing price of 230 I thought was right. Game 2 is another over spot. I think they'll be fewer turnovers and more shot opportunities for both teams, but especially Indiana — the Pacers shouldn't have 18 turnovers in the first half again. Both teams are top three in pace and value possessions analytically. Oklahoma City should get to the line a little more often as well. Combine more shots with the clock stopped more often, easy baskets and early-market action, and I do think this is comfortable to go back to the over again. Advertisement "The full zig-zag is priced in at -11 for OKC. I can't get there to back either side. I would understand it if people want to back the Pacers again, but I would be very surprised if the 10.5's weren't taken by tip. I think any 10.5's will be hit and if it gets to 10, those will be snapped up as well. The Pacers at plus-11.5 or OKC at minus-10 will probably be sharp numbers to have by tip. There are more opportunities in the prop market, so it's probably the better place to attack. And if you don't have Oklahoma City futures for the series, I'd say now is the time. "I like Pascal Siakam over 18.5 points. I think a lot of people are going to go to Isaiah Hartenstein overs, but I would be cautious of that. It's going to be a public side, and everyone is talking about the Thunder being outrebounded. I don't think Oklahoma City is going to change — they're going to look at as 'We had a 15-point lead in the 4Q and lost it, let's see what happens.' I think they'll keep looking to play small. I'd look more at Lou Dort. His role will be there and stable, so I like his over 14.5 points plus rebounds plus assists, too." Best bets: Over 228.5, Pascal Siakam over 18.5 points, Lou Dort over 14.5 PRA

The Fever are 1-2 in Clark's absence. Indiana dropped the first two games without Clark, but rebounded with an 85-76 win over the Washington Mystics on June 3. Kelsey Mitchell recorded a game-high 24 points in the win, tying her season high. Meanwhile, Chicago enters Saturday riding a two-game win streak after starting the season with four consecutive losses, including a season-opening 93-58 loss to the Fever on May 17. Angel Reese leads the league in rebounds per game (12.3), but the Sky will need to create more offense to keep their winning streak alive.
