Kaitlyn Clark made WNBA history last night by breaking the league's single-season assists record. The record-breaking moment occurred during a pass to her teammate, Kelsey Mitchell, towards the end of the first half. Notably, Clark had not scored any points in the game up to that point, which is uncommon for her as a prolific scorer.
Clark, a rookie, surpassed the previous record of 317 assists set by Alyssa Thomas last year. With 321 assists and counting, Clark has two more games to further solidify her place in WNBA history. Despite her slow start in scoring, she managed to rally in the second half, scoring 18 points and nearly leading her team, the Indiana Fever, to a victory over the Las Vegas Aces, the two-time defending champions.
