• Unprecedented WNBA History: Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark secured the first-ever 40-point, 10-assist performance in WNBA history during a high-stakes, 110-107 victory over the Seattle Storm.
• Franchise Scoring Record: Clark recorded a spectacular career-high 45 points, shooting 11-of-18 from the floor and 6-of-10 from deep to log the highest single-game scoring output in Indiana Fever franchise history.
• Three-Point Milestone: Sinking her 200th career shot from beyond the arc in just her 74th professional game, Clark officially blew past basketball legend Katie Smith’s previous record (81 games) to become the fastest player to hit the milestone.

Caitlin Clark delivered a masterclass performance that will surely go down in the WNBA history books. The Indiana Fever superstar executed a jaw-dropping, record-shattering offensive performance against the Seattle Storm on Friday night, helping her Fever squad to a thrilling 110-107 victory. But in true Caitlin Clark fashion, the guard converted elite offensive efficiency into a statistical blueprint the league has never seen before. The performance, you ask? Clark erupted for a massive career-high 45 points while operating at maximum efficiency, locking in an 11-of-18 shooting night from the field and draining six of her 10 attempts from long range. By pairing her lethal scoring volume with exactly 10 assists, Clark became the very first player in WNBA history to cross the 40-point and 10-assist thresholds in a single game. The 45-point masterclass also cleanly sets the new standard for the highest single-game scoring performance in Indiana Fever franchise history.

The Record

This milestone means Clark has now beaten dethroned Hall of Famer Katie Smith—who previously held the record at 81 games—as the fastest player in WNBA history to clear 200 deep strikes. While her historic offensive numbers controlled the arena’s tracking arrays, Clark’s defensive contributions ultimately locked down the victory, but that’s not all. The guard also filled out the stat sheet with four steals and two blocks. Clark’s biggest defensive stop came with under 40 seconds left on the clock, swatting away a driving layup attempt from Seattle rookie sensation Flau’jae Johnson.

Another pivotal game in the books for Caitlin Clark, as the Fever walked away with a signature victory that will no doubt cement Clark’s spot at the absolute vanguard of modern basketball culture.
