Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark entered the uncharted territory with a history-making performance, dropping 34 points against the Connecticut Sun.
Clark becomes the first WNBA player with consecutive games of 30-plus points and 10-plus assists.
Clark and Mitchell ran the show for the Fever on Friday night, scoring or assisting on 92 of the team’s 111 points, the third-highest single-game total in WNBA history.
The feat comes as the Fever defeated the Sun 111-91 on Friday, August 28, in Indianapolis.
Clark’s stormy game featured a double-double with 34 points on 50 percent from three-point land and 12 assists, marking her fifth double-double of the season.
In a postgame interview, Clark said, she feels “probably the best I’ve ever felt in my career,” pointing to the injuries she suffered with back issues earlier this season.
“I think it was a battle for the first 20 games for me to really find my confidence again, mostly in my body. Now I feel like just playing, not thinking,” Clark added.
It also marks the fourth game where the Fever’s trailblazing duo posted 30 or more this season, breaking their own WNBA single-season record for a duo.
The records poured like monsoon showers, as the duo also achieved another milestone in WNBA history—the same teammates have also scored at least 30 points in straight games.
