The Fever lost to the Valkryies 88-77 in the first meeting between the two franchises, and the Fever's first game at the Chase Center, also home to Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors. Golden State (6-6) entered the game with the same record as perennial title contenders, the Las Vegas Aces, who the Fever visit at 3 p.m. Sunday.

Kayla Thornton led Golden State with 16 points and Clark's former teammate at Iowa, Kate Martin, had nine points and five rebounds off the bench. Clark and the Fever will host the Valkyries on July 9 and return to Golden State for a chance at redemption on August 31.
