Caitlin Clark made history by breaking the WNBA rookie 3-point record, surpassing Rhyne Howard’s previous record of 85 three-pointers ¹. Clark achieved this feat during the Indiana Fever’s 84-80 win over the Connecticut Sun, where she scored 19 points, five rebounds, and five assists ². The record-breaking three-pointer was made less than three minutes into the game, and Clark finished with 88 three-pointers for the season ¹.

This achievement adds to Clark’s impressive rookie season, where she has already set the all-time single-game assists record and leads the league in assists per game ¹. Her ability to shoot from downtown and create opportunities for her teammates has made her a significant threat on the court ¹. Clark’s chemistry with teammate Kelsey Mitchell has also been a key factor in the Fever’s recent success ³.

The Indiana Fever’s win over the Connecticut Sun was their first in the series since July 2021, snapping an 11-game losing streak ³. The team’s victory was a testament to their growth and improvement, with Clark’s record-breaking performance being a highlight of the game ¹.
