The 2024 WNBA regular season ends on Thursday, Sept. 19. The playoffs are looming, but Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever have one more game to go.
Indiana will travel to Washington, D.C., to face the Mystics. Tip-off is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET, and the game will air on Amazon Prime Video.
Clark has already had a record-breaking season. She set the single-season scoring record for a rookie on Sept. 15. Clark dropped 35 (a personal best) against the Dallas Wings to further cement herself in the basketball record books. The previous scoring record held by Seimone Augustus stood for nearly 20 years before Clark broke it in the second to last game of the season.

Clark’s second three-pointer was deeper than the first and warranted two different angles to show how far back she was.

When Clark starts hitting from deep, she draws the attention of more defenders. This opens more passing lanes, and while an avid shooter, Clark excels at finding her teammates in advantageous situations for them to score.

Even when the passing lanes are narrow, Clark can find her teammates. This was a nice assist to NaLyssa Smith down low.

Clark didn’t shoot in the second half and only logged five more minutes. Indiana was already locked into a playoff spot, and it looks like the Fever wanted to rest some key players. Clark’s two three-pointers in the first half moved her into second all-time for most three-pointers made in a single season, trailing only Sabrina Ionescu.
With her second 3PM of the game, Caitlin Clark now has 122 on the year, which gives her the second-most in a single season in WNBA history as she surpasses Diana Taurasi’s 121 3PM in 2006 (34 game season).Sabrina Ionescu’s 128 in 2023 is the league record pic.twitter.com/0kKlWuaEQT
