The rookie sensation for the Indiana Fever, Caitlin Clark delivered another stellar performance on Wednesday, 4 September. Clark recorded her second triple-double of the season in their victory over the Los Angeles Sparks. With this win, she showcased her incredible versatility and skill.
The fifth consecutive win for the Indiana Fever
With a mere 10.2 seconds remaining in the game, Clark grabbed a crucial rebound that secured the Fever's fifth win on the trot. Clark showcased her dominance on both sides of the court as the crowd erupted in cheers.
Clark finished the game with an impressive stat line that included 24 points, 10 assists, and 10 rebounds. It is very rare in the WNBA that you get to see a player of her ability, who can contribute at every juncture of the game.
First rookie to achieve this feat
On top of it, she became the first rookie in WNBA league history to achieve a triple-double (19 points, 13 assists, 12 rebounds). She accomplished this feat back in July against their triumph over the New York Liberty.
With her latest triple-double, Clark became the fifth WNBA player and joined an elite group of players who have recorded multiple triple-doubles in a single season. With her solid performances and remarkable achievements, she has earned status as one of the most promising young talents in the league.
Clark's college career
Caitlin Clark's dominance extends beyond the WNBA. During her college career at Iowa, she achieved a mind-boggling feat. She recorded 17 triple-doubles as the Hawkeyes managed to win every single game.
She continued her success in the top league as on Wednesday, she made four 3-pointers that put her at 102 treys for the season. This feat of hers meant that she became the fastest player in WNBA history to reach the century mark, achieving it in just her 34th game.
Unforgettable month of August for Clark
Clark's exceptional style of play has not gone unnoticed as she was honored with the WNBA Rookie of the Month and Eastern Conference Player of the Month awards for August. Her impact on the Indiana Fever has been undeniable.
After grabbing her final rebound from Wednesday's game, she couldn't help but smile as she had just secured her second triple-double of the season. In fact, her teammates and the crowd of 16,645 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse immediately recognized the significance of her achievement.
