Clark Sets 23rd 25-Point 5-Assist Record in WNBA

Caitlin Clark continued to rewrite WNBA history in 2026, delivering another 25-point, five-assist performance and extending her single-season record for such games to 12, while moving into fifth place on the all-time list for those efforts. Her sustained excellence helped Indiana Fever to a string of wins and established the team as a feared offensive unit around her playmaking and outside shooting. Clark also became the fastest player in WNBA history to reach 700 career assists, achieving the milestone in 83 games, and pushed her season averages higher as she climbs the scoring and assists leaderboards. In addition to her on-court milestones, she drew national attention during All-Star weekend with a high-profile encounter and supportive words from Barack Obama, underscoring her prominence in American sports culture. Articles also note her ongoing pursuit of additional records, including tying or surpassing other all-time benchmarks and maintaining the Fever’s recent success as they head into a demanding schedule. Clark’s rapid ascent continues to fuel debates about the limits of her historic impact on and off the court.
