The Fever's win on Wednesday broke an 11-game losing streak to the Sun
WNBA Rookie of the Year frontrunner Caitlin Clark broke the league record for 3-pointers by a first-year player during the Indiana Fever's win over the Connecticut Sun on Wednesday.
And a special guest was in attendance to watch Clark and the Fever win a second consecutive game amid their playoff push – superstar American gymnast Simone Biles.
The seven-time Olympic gold medalist said the game in Indianapolis marked her first time taking in WNBA action in person.

At the end of the video, Biles compared the interaction she had with the WNBA players to what she previously encountered with male athletes.
"They were so excited. Oh my god. It's like usually the boy will just pass and be like 'Yup.' But they were so excited, that was so cool," Biles said.
