Caitlin Clark sets WNBA single-season assists record to continue impressive rookie season

Caitlin Clark continues to etch her name in the history books.

The Indiana Fever phenom set the WNBA single-season assists record on Friday night when she recorded her 317th of the season in a 78-74 loss to the Las Vegas Aces, surpassing the record set by Alyssa Thomas (Connecticut Sun) last year.

With under five minutes to go, Clark, 22, bounced an inbounds pass to a charging Kelsey Mitchell, who drove to the hoop and sunk a layup, giving her five assists on the night.

This comes a little less than two months after she set the single-game assists record (19) in a loss to the Dallas Wings.
