Caitlin Clark’s rookie season in the WNBA may have started slowly, with the Indiana Fever dropping their first five games, but the former Iowa standout has since found her stride, proving why she was the No. 1 pick in the draft. As the season has progressed, Clark has not only met expectations but exceeded them, transforming the Fever into one of the league’s most formidable teams and setting them up as a serious threat in the upcoming postseason.
Clark has shattered numerous records during her debut season, but her latest achievement truly underscores the impact she’s made in such a short time. The star guard now holds the record for the most double-doubles by a guard in a single season, with 12 and counting. This remarkable feat highlights her versatility and dominance on the court, showing that she is not just a scorer but a complete player who can contribute in multiple facets of the game.
Her most recent double-double came in a crucial victory over the Dallas Wings, where Clark delivered an impressive performance, scoring 28 points and dishing out 12 assists. These numbers reflect her season averages of 18.7 points and 8.4 assists per game, statistics that place her among the elite players in the league.

Thanks in large part to Clark’s leadership and explosive play, the Fever have turned their season around, winning six of their last seven games. Now sitting at 17-16, they are poised for a strong finish as they prepare to host the Los Angeles Sparks on Wednesday night.
The Fever will be aiming for their fifth consecutive win, and Clark will be looking to continue her record-breaking run as she cements her status as one of the league’s brightest stars.
