Caitlin Clark continues to make waves in the WNBA, and her latest performance only adds to her already impressive résumé. During the Indiana Fever’s final home game of the regular season, Clark set a new WNBA rookie scoring record, surpassing Seimone Augustus’ 2006 record of 744 points. Clark hit her fourth three-pointer of the game, propelling her to 745 points and marking yet another historic moment for the 21-year-old.

The game against the Dallas Wings was a nail-biter, but Clark’s brilliance in the fourth quarter helped secure a 110-109 victory for Indiana. Scoring a career-high 35 points, Clark once again proved why she’s one of the most electrifying players to watch, single-handedly keeping the Fever’s playoff hopes alive.

“I’m proud of this group and the way we fought,” Clark said after the game. “These fans deserved this win, and I’m just happy we could deliver.”

Clark’s dominance extends beyond scoring

 

While her scoring prowess is undeniable, Clark has also shattered expectations with her playmaking. Not only is she leading the league in assists per game with 8.4, but she’s on the verge of breaking the all-time WNBA single-season assist record. In Sunday’s game, Clark added eight assists, further solidifying her place as a transformative player.

Caitlin Clark sinks deep shot and lets out fierce scream during Indiana Fever shootaround

Her incredible season has drawn fans in droves. With a staggering 605,358 people attending Fever games to watch Clark this season, Indiana’s fan attendance has eclipsed the record previously held by the 1999 Washington Mystics. The impact of “Clark-enomics” is clear-she’s not just boosting Indiana’s wins but also igniting a new wave of enthusiasm for the WNBA.

Teaming up with Kelsey Mitchell, Clark and the Fever are pushing for a deep postseason run, with one regular season game left against the Washington Mystics. Currently sitting at 20-19, Indiana will look to carry their momentum into the playoffs.

As Caitlin Clark continues her meteoric rise, it’s safe to say the WNBA has never seen a rookie quite like her-and it might be a long time before we see another.
