Caitlin Clark Sets WNBA Record

Indiana Fever rookie phenom Caitlin Clark recorded a new WNBA record 19 assists during her team's 101-93 loss to the Dallas Wings Wednesday (July 17) night.

Clark broke the previous record of 18 set by then-Chicago Sky guard Courtney Vandersloot by setting up Kelsey Mitchell 's 3-point shot late in the fourth quarter. The assist brought Clark's season total to 213, which is the most by an Indiana Fever player in franchise history and is 12 shy of Ticha Penicheiro 's WNBA rookie record of 225.

Clark has scored or assisted on 915 total points, which is also a WNBA rookie record, with 14 games remaining in the season as the Fever enter the Olympic break with an 11-15 record.

"It's kind of frustrating. I feel like we've left two games out there that are very winnable for us going into the break, the [Washington] Mystics at home and then obviously this one, and then we've won other matchups that are really tough for us," Clark said via ESPN . "I think that's the biggest area for our team to grow. These last 14 games of the year, you can't leave these opportunities on the table."
