The WNBA is officially on alert for triple-doubles coming from Caitlin Clark.
With the Hawkeyes, it seemed triple-doubles were always a possibility for Clark each night. That reality is now hitting the WNBA as Caitlin Clark recorded the first-ever triple-double by a rookie.
Clark’s 19 points, 13 assists, and 12 rebounds led the Indiana Fever to a win over the New York Liberty, which has sent waves through the league. The Fever are on the rebound after a few abysmal years and have themselves contending for a playoff spot just 22 games into Clark’s career.
The game was one that lit up social media, had fans applauding Caitlin Clark, and had her teammates, namely Aliyah Boston, hyping her up for the historic performance.
With the dust settled and Caitlin Clark’s name once again etched in the basketball record books, as it so often has been before, take a look at some of the best photos from the game.
