WNBA: Caitlin Clark's Stellar Performance with 45 Points and 10 Assists, Dominique Malonga's Impressive 28 Points and 14 Rebounds
Caitlin Clark delivered a remarkable performance, adding four steals and two blocks to her stat line. She also became the fastest player in WNBA history to reach 200 career three-pointers, achieving this milestone in just 74 games, surpassing Katie Smith's previous record of 81 games. Clark's 45 points also set a new franchise record.
The Fever star shot an efficient 11-of-18 from the field, including 6-of-10 from beyond the arc, and was perfect at the free-throw line, making 17-of-19 attempts.
"I feel like some nights, you just know before the game even tips off that it's going to be a good night for you," Caitlin Clark stated. "I felt like this was going to be one of those nights for me."
"She's an exceptional player, incredibly talented," said Sonia Raman, the Storm's coach. "Her three-point shooting was particularly effective tonight. You know how she's able to shoot off the bounce and shoot off the catch. That threat is always there, and you know her ability to drive, her ability to find her floaters. She was really solid in all aspects of the game."
For Seattle, Dominique Malonga contributed 28 points and 14 rebounds. The Storm suffered their fourth consecutive loss and currently sit at the bottom of the league standings. The French All-Star is averaging 16.2 points and 8.5 rebounds this season.
