Fever’s Caitlin Clark records WNBA’s 1st 40-point, 10-assist double-double – ESPN
Caitlin Clark scored a career-high 45 points and had 10 assists for the first 40-10 game in WNBA history, and the Indiana Fever beat Seattle 110-107.
INDIANAPOLIS — Caitlin Clark was in big trouble for a moment on an evening when she dominated the record books.
The Indiana Fever star had saved a turnover and was scrambling back toward half court as the shot clock ticked away with less than a minute left with the score tied against the Seattle Storm. Then she drove left, stopped on a dime and gave a quick sidestep to shake loose of Flau’jae Johnson.
With just a breath of space and 39.1 seconds left, Clark elevated from 26 feet away and hit nothing but twine. She turned with a flex, stuck out her tongue and let loose an expletive as the crowd erupted into a fit of glee. The Fever never trailed again as they won 110-107 and Clark became the first player in WNBA history with 45 points and 10 assists.
