Caitlin Clark makes WNBA history in Indiana Fever loss to Los Angeles Sparks

CNN — 

The Indiana Fever’s early season struggles continued on Tuesday with an 88-82 defeat to the Los Angeles Sparks, but Caitlin Clark produced her most scintillating performance so far.

The No. 1 overall pick finished with 30 points, five rebounds, six assists, three steals and three blocks in the game, becoming the first rookie – and fourth player overall – in WNBA history to record a 30-5-5-3-3 stat line.

She is now also the fastest rookie in WNBA history to record 100 points and 50 assists.

Honestly, I think I just played with an aggressive mindset,” Clark told reporters. “I think that was the biggest thing, just to play downhill the best I could.

“I would have liked to have made a couple more threes … but I thought we did some good things and then we just kinda shoot ourselves in the foot.”

The Fever opened up a 55-48 lead with 2:34 remaining in the third quarter, but the Sparks then went on an 11-0 run to end the period and take a lead they never gave up.

Christie Sides’ team has now lost seven of its first eight games after a tough schedule to begin the season.

The eight games they’ve played since the season tipped off two weeks ago is also the most of any team in the league and double the number of games played by two other teams.

Clark shot 43.8% from the field against the Sparks and went three-for-10 from deep
