Mandatory Credit: David Gonzales-Imagn Images Fever guard Caitlin Clark became the fastest player to log 500 career assists in WNBA history on Thursday night during Indiana's game against the Golden State Valkyries in San Francisco.
Clark reached the milestone number in her 59th WNBA game.
She entered the night at 497, and her first three assists of the game came in a quick sequence during the second quarter. After hitting Raven Johnson and Myisha Hines-Allen for layups, Clark delivered a long chest pass upcourt to Sophie Cunningham on the run for a fastbreak basket that cut Indiana's deficit to 37-32.
Clark, 24, also reached 1,000 career points earlier this season. She is far and away the fastest WNBA player to record her first 1,000 points and 500 assists. Sue Bird had the previous mark at 82 games.
