Caitlin Clark made history again on Monday night during the Indiana Fever‘s 84-79 victory over the Atlanta Dream.
With her fourth made 3-pointer on the evening, Clark tied Rhyne Howard’s WNBA single-season rookie 3-pointers made record. It matched Howard’s 85 made 3-pointers during the 2022 WNBA season.
The best part? Clark sank the record-tying 3-pointer over Howard’s outstretched arms.
