Caitlin Clark continues to make waves in her rookie season with the Indiana Fever. In a standout performance against the Las Vegas Aces at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Clark set a new WNBA record for most assists in a single season. Her 317th assist broke the previous record held by Alyssa Thomas of the Connecticut Sun.
Clark, known for her spectacular plays and court vision, achieved this milestone with a seemingly routine inbound pass to Kelsey Mitchell. Despite the understated nature of the record-breaking assist, it’s a testament to Clark’s consistent brilliance and playmaking abilities.
The 22-year-old rookie has been rewriting the record books all season. Among her achievements, Clark has become the first WNBA rookie to record two triple-doubles, set a single-game assists record with 19, and reached 350 points and 150 assists faster than any player before her. Her standout performances have also played a crucial role in securing the Fever’s first playoff appearance since 2016.
Fans and analysts alike are impressed by Clark’s impact, with many already calling her one of the greatest of all time and predicting a bright future ahead. As she continues to excel, Clark remains focused on helping the Fever close the gap against the Aces as the game progresses into the final quarter.
