    The historic pace Caitlin Clark is going throughout her rookie season in the WNBA has been remarkable.

    Averaging 18.9 points, 8.4 assists, and 5.8 assists per game in 34 appearances, Clark has been constantly setting records for both the Indiana Fever and the WNBA. This means that Clark is perfectly setting herself up to be the face of the league at a quicker rate than anyone may have expected.

    Friday night's game against the Minnesota Lynx was no exception. With her 103rd made three-pointer in the first quarter, she became the all-time leader in threes made in Fever history.

    But that's not the only record she decided to break against the 24-9 Lynx.

    Entering the second half leading 50-45, Clark has 17 points alongside four rebounds and four assists. With this stat line, she reached the milestone of having both 200 or more assists and 200 or more rebounds in a season.

    It's not the numbers she reached that stand out. It's the little time it took for her to accomplish it. According to StatMamba , she became the fastest player in WNBA history to get to those numbers in a single season.

    Many talented players had remarkable journeys in the WNBA, becoming the pioneers in recording history for the league. But for Clark to do what they did but in the quickest manner possible just goes to show how elite the Fever rookie really is.
