Caitlin Clark’s historic rookie season ended Wednesday as the Indiana Fever lost 87-81 to the Connecticut Sun, losing their first-round playoff series 0-2.
Her 337 assists in the regular season were not only a rookie record, but also the WNBA record for assists in a season.
She became the first rookie to record a triple-double, and she set the record for most 3s by a rookie in a single season, as well.
On July 17, Clark recorded 19 assists in a loss to the Dallas Wings, a single-game WNBA record.
After her final collegiate game in April, Clark’s professional career began the next month in May.
