    Caitlin Clark Passes Diana Taurasi, Sabrina Ionescu to Make WNBA History

    Caitlin Clark continues to shatter milestones in her rookie season with the Indiana Fever.

    In the Fever's 88-99 loss to the Minnesota Lynx on Friday night, Clark set the all-time single-season record for games with at least 25 points, five assists and five made three pointers.

    To reach this historic mark, Clark passed two all-time great WNBA superstars: Diana Taurasi and Sabrina Ionescu.

    Clark finished Friday night's loss with 25 points, eight assists and eight rebounds — nearing yet another triple-double.

    Unfortunately for the Fever, this historic performance wasn't enough to overcome the talent of Napheesa Collier and the No. 3-seed Lynx. This loss marks the end of what was a five-game winning streak for Indiana.

    Before Friday night's game, Clark had three straight games with at least 20 points and 10 assists. She recorded her second career WNBA triple-double with a 24-point, 10-assist, 10-rebound performance in a win over the Los Angeles Sparks on Wednesday night.

    Clark and the Fever will look to bounce back in a matchup against the Atlanta Dream on Sunday.
