Candace Parker continues to make WNBA history in the flashiest way possible

If you didn’t already know, Candace Parker is one of the greatest players to ever play the game of basketball. She’s a two-time WNBA champion, has two league MVP awards and has been one of the faces of the W since entering back in 2008.

And in her age-36 season, she continues to add to her legend.

Last week, Parker became the first player in WNBA history to record three career triple-doubles. On Wednesday, she became the only WNBA player to reach 6,000 points, 3,000 rebounds and 1,500 assists in a career after dishing a sweet, no-look dime to Kahleah Copper on the fastbreak.

A no-look assist to enter the history books? How fitting that is for Parker, who is still one of the most fascinating players to watch.
