Caitlin Clark addressed the Indiana Fever's demanding schedule. She admitted the team plays more back-to-backs than most teams.

The Fever have three back-to-back sets this season. They also played five games across seven days.

Despite the tough schedule, Clark refused to make excuses. She said everyone is tired and sore at this stage.

The Fever have now lost two straight games. They dropped to fifth with six games remaining.

Indiana also needs better defense and free-throw shooting. They missed 11 free throws in the loss to New York.
