Bo history for the fever rookie they say records are meant to be broken but nobody told Caitlyn Clark she had to break 62 of them in one season from scoring to assists from Indiana Fever franchise records to League wide history Clark didn't just enter the WNBA she turned it upside down but what exactly are these 62 records and how did she manage to set them all make no mistake Caitlyn Clark is doing things Beyond her years imagine this a packed Arena fans on the edge of their seats and Caitlyn Clark dishing out her 19th assist
of the game Caitlyn decided not to shoot Mitchell will hits the that's right 19 assists in a single WNBA game a feat never before accomplished the crowd erupts teammates rush to embrace her and just like that history is made guess what that was just one of 62 records Clark shattered in her debut season how is that even possible when Clark entered the WNBA expectations were sky high but no one could have predicted the storm she'd unleash from day one she didn't just meet those expectations she obliterated them before we break it down please don't forget
to subscribe to the channel and now we're about to uncover the incredible story of how one rookie Superstar changed the game forever she's playing really well she's shooting the hell out of the ball um and she's making sure she's you know she's finding those open players she had some amazing assists tonight Clark's debut season wasn't just about shattering expectations it was about re writing the record books entirely remember that 19 assist game turns out her scoring Feats were even more mind-blowing how many 30-point games does it take to set a franchise record for Caitlyn Clark
the answer was more than anyone's ever seen before from the moment she stepped onto the WNBA Court Clark made it clear she wasn't just here to play she was here to dominate in a league known for its high caliber Talent Clark's scoring ability stood out like a beacon she reached her 100th point in just eight games faster than any freshman in WNBA history but Clark was just getting started as the season progressed Clark's scoring consistency became almost superhuman she racked up 30-point games like they were going out of style setting a new franchise record for
the Indiana Fever each game fans held their breath wondering if this would be the night Clark would outdo herself again this is an Iverson cut over two screeners then there's a pin down then there's a Chase then there's a double contest all to get this shot that is not easy work but she makes it look like Slight Work wasn't just about individual games Clark's scoring prowess throughout the season was nothing short of historic she blazed past Milestones that had stood for years in just 10 games she became the fastest player to record 150 plus points
50 plus rebounds and 50 plus assists by Game 12 she had 200 plus points and 50 plus assists and in a mere 19 games she hit 300 plus points 100 plus rebounds and 100 plus assists Clark's ability to score from anywhere on the court forced opposing teams to completely rethink their defensive strategies double teams became the norm with Defenders sticking to her like glue but here's the thing even with all that attention Clark kept finding ways to score about my school experience this defensive focus on Clark opened up opportunities for her teammates suddenly players like
Aaliyah Boston Lexi Hull and Kelsey Mitchell found themselves with more open looks and scoring chances Clark's gravity on the court made everyone around her better turning the Indiana Fever into a formidable offensive threat as the season wore on Clark's three-point shooting became the stuff of Legend she set the rookie record for most three-pointers made in a season showcasing a range that had Defenders shaking their heads in disbelief Austin had her 11th double double of the season and Clark hits a three but perhaps the most jaw-dropping moment came when Clark set a new WNBA record for
the most points scored or assisted in a single game game with a total of 66 points scored or assisted she showed that her impact went far beyond just putting the ball in the hoop herself Clark was orchestrating an offensive Symphony and the entire league was her audience if you've made it this far and are enjoying the video don't forget to like subscribe and turn on all notifications we know watching this video takes some of your time and we appreciate you now back to the action then to go with her dtis is able to slip to
the mid-range to knock down a nice bunny so she's able to not only score herself but she's Distributing the ball but last but not least while Clark's scoring grabbed headlines her true magic happened when the ball left her hands how many assists does it take to shatter a franchise record how about a League wide one for Clark it was a number that left commentators speechless remember that 19 assist game we mentioned earlier it wasn't just a flash in the pan Clark's ability to set up her teammates became the Cornerstone of her debut season she reached
50 assists in just eight games the fastest any rookie had ever hit that Mark but Clark was just warming up as the season progressed Clark's passing prowess reached New Heights she hit 100 assists in 12 games and 200 assists in 26 games tying for the fastest in WNBA history these weren't just empty numbers they were game changers she knows how to lay it out on a dime her Court vision is impeccable and now her teammates are ready to catch the ball they trust she's going to get it where it needs to be but y'all the
favorite part of my game from Caitlyn Clark is this behind the back pass come on now I love it I love it and that wasn't just one time she does that on a frequent and drops it right there perfect to Aaliyah bosson so let me just sprinkle in because you mentioned AB two of those highlights I believe were a Clark Boston connection those two have been the second best scoring duo in the league behind Asia Wilson and Jackie young Clark's Court Vision transformed the Indiana fevers offense Aaliyah Boston found herself on the receiving end of
pinpoint passes leading to easy buckets in the paint Lexi Hull's three-point shooting percentage skyrocketed as Clark consistently found her for open looks and Kelsey Mitchell she thrived off Clark's ability to draw Defenders and dish out at the perfect moment Clark's impact went beyond individual games she became the first rookie in WNBA history to record multiple games with 20 plus points and 10 plus assists this dual threat capability forced defenses to constantly adjust opening up opportunities for her teammates as the season war on Clark's playmaking ability became the stuff of Legend she set a new league
record for assists in a single game with that mindblowing 19 assist performance but even more impressive was her consistency game after game Clark found ways to elevate her teammates performances thans at home Clark pushing Mitchell back door lays it in the numbers tell a story of dominance but they don't capture the full picture Clark's passes weren't just accurate they were creative behind the back dimes no look assists and crosscourt lasers became regular features in Fever games fans started coming to the arena just to see what kind of magic Clark would conjure up next Clark's assist
totals didn't just impact individual games they changed the entire trajectory of the fever season the team's offensive ratings soared and suddenly Indiana was in the playoff conversation Clark's ability to create scoring opportunities for her teammates turned the fever into one of the most dynamic offenses in the league by season's end Clark had set the record for most point assist double doubles by a rookie in WNBA history but perhaps her most impressive feat was finishing the season with the most assists in a single season in WNBA history with 337 shattering the one set last year by
Alyssa Thomas of 316 in just one year Clark had established herself as one of the all-time great Playmakers six of 17 outside of Mitchell but she's open it's Clark's passing prowess left the league in awe but her next feat would redefine expectations entirely what happens when a firstyear player achieves something no one in league history ever had the answer would shock even the most seasoned WNBA veterans on a warm summer Indiana evening with the fever locked in a tight game against the New York Liberty Caitlyn Clark stepped onto the court with determination in her eyes
little did anyone know they were about to witness history unfold as the final buzzer sounded Clark had etched her name in the record books once again becoming the first rookie in WNBA history to record a triple double the first rookie in WNBA history you see it right there to record a triple double the statline was jaw-dropping 19 points 13 assists and 12 rebounds but it wasn't just the numbers that impressed it was the way Clark controlled every aspect of the game she weaved through Defenders with ease found teammates with pinpoint passes and somehow always seem
to be in the right place for crucial rebounds triple doubles are a rare achievement for any player let alone a firste player to put it in perspective some of the greatest players in WNBA history never managed to accomplish this feat in their entire careers yet here was Clark barely into her professional Journey already rewriting the history books she was the first rookie in WNBA history to achieve a triple double and the first ever player in Indiana Fever franchise history ever but Clark wasn't content with just one historic performance she was so good she did it
a second time against the Los Angeles Sparks 24 points 10 assists 10 rebounds throughout the season she flirted with triple doubles on multiple occasions coming tantalizingly close time and time again it's up it won't go Clark pulls it down and this building knows what that means Clark's versatility forced the Indiana Fever to adapt their entire game plan with a player who could score pass and rebound at an elite level the team had a Swiss army knife they could deploy in any situation opposing teams found themselves in a Stant state of confusion never quite sure how
to defend against a player who could beat you in so many ways as the season progressed Clark's allaround dominance became the norm rather than the exception her ability to fill up every column of the stat sheet night after night left fans and analysts scrambling for comparisons was she the next Triple double machine a point guard with the rebounding skills of a forward or something entirely new that the WNBA had never seen before the impact of Clark's play extended far beyond Beyond individual games her triple double and near triple double performances became must C TV drawing
in casual fans and basketball purists alike social media exploded with highlights of Clark's latest Feats spreading her influence far beyond the confines of WNBA Arenas Clark passes guess who Diana to rosi reality is coming she's Reality by season's end Clark's averages told the story of her unprecedented freshman campaign she finished the year average ing 19.2 points 8.4 assists and 5.7 rebounds per game these weren't just good numbers they were Elite numbers for any player in the league to put these averages in context Clark found herself among the league leaders in points and outright leading the
league in assists and three-pointers for the season her scoring placed her in the top Echelon of WNBA scorers her assists marked her as one of the Premier Playmakers in the game and her rebounding numbers were up there for a guard CL season averages didn't just set her apart from her freshman class they put her in the conversation with the best players in the WNBA regardless of experience veterans who had been dominating the league for years suddenly found themselves looking over their shoulders at the newcomer who was threatening their status as Clark star rose so did
the hopes of a franchise mired in mediocrity what happens when you inject a generational Talent into a team that hasn't seen the playoffs in nearly a decade the Indiana Fever were about to find out and the outcome would leave fans breathless which teams would I not want to see in the playoffs and that's where you brought up the fever I think the fever had been struggling for years missing the playoffs since 2016 their recent seasons were a far cry from The Glory Days of Tama Catchings but all that was about to change with the arrival
of Caitlyn Elizabeth Clark from the moment Clark stepped onto the court the energy around the team shifted suddenly every fever game became mustsee TV fans who had long since given up hope started filling the stands again eager to witness the Caitlyn Clark effect firsthand as the season progressed the fever's Improvement was undeniable games that would have been blowout losses in previous years became nail-biting victories Clark's ability to create scoring opportunities for herself and her teammates kept opponents on their toes the fever's transformation wasn't just happening on the court attendance numbers soared with fans packing the
arena to catch a glimpse of Clark's magic media attention reached levels the franchise hadn't seen in years suddenly the Indiana Fever were back in the National Spotlight as the wind started piling up something incredible happened the fever a team that had been an afterthought in playoff discussions for years found themselves in the thick of the postseason race with each game The Impossible began to feel more and more achievable but to me the numbers bear it out they've been on terrific tear since the All-Star break but it also looks like they're playing with joy when the
dust settled on the regular season the fever had done the unthinkable a 2020 record might not seem Earth shattering but for a team that won just five games 2 years ago it was nothing short of miraculous more importantly it was enough to secure a playoff birth ending their seven-year postseason drought the impact of Clark's freshman season went far beyond the win column she became the face of a new era in women's basketball representing a shift in how young female athletes are perceived and celebrated in professional sports for Jersey sales skyrocketed and her highlights dominated social
media to truly appreciate the Clark effect consider this in the 2023 season the fever averaged just over 4,000 fans per home game with Clark leading the charge in 2024 that blew up to at least 177,000 per home game and every time the Indiana Fever were in town opponents had to book bigger Arenas to cater for fans the fever weren't just winning games they were winning back the hearts of basketball fans across Indiana and Beyond Clark's influence extended to the broader WNBA landscape television ratings for fever games soared and the league saw a surge in overall
interest young girls across the country were picking up basketballs dreaming of becoming the next Caitlyn Clark Caitlyn Clark's debut season wasn't just impressive it was historic with 62 records shattered she's built a compelling case for MVP from her League leading assists to her game-changing triple doubles Clark redefined what's possible for a firste player but Clark's impact goes beyond the numbers she transformed the Indiana fever from a struggling team to playoff contenders her leadership on the court elevated her teammates turning the fever into one of the most dynamic offenses in the league off the court Clark's
influence has been just as profound skyrocketing attendance record-breaking jersey sales and a surge in media attention have put the WNBA in the spotlight like never before Clark's first season hasn't just set new benchmarks it's changed the entire landscape of women's basketball inspiring a new generation of players and fans alike and the greatest part we get to watch History unfold every day let us know in the comments like subscribe and turn on all notifications so you never miss out on the latest news click the video on the screen and we will see you in the next
