On Wednesday night, Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever went up against Rickea Jackson and the Los Angeles Sparks for the third and final time of the 2024 WNBA season.
Throughout the season, Clark has broken numerous records, including the league’s first triple-double by a rookie and the most assists in a single game (19 against the Dallas Wings). Against the Sparks, the former Iowa Hawkeyes star did it once again.
With 6:06 left in the third quarter, Clark hit her second three-pointer of the game and her 100th of the season. In doing so, she became the fastest player in WNBA history to reach 100 threes, doing it in just 34 games.

Clark has led the Fever to their first WNBA playoff berth since 2016. This happened when the Chicago Sky and Atlanta Dream both lost on Tuesday night. Indiana also has their first winning record in over five years after winning six of their first seven games following the Olympic break.
For her performances in August, Clark also earned two Rookie of the Week awards, the Rookie of the Month honors and her first Player of the Month, adding to her already prolific resume.
