Caitlin Clark notches triple-double, first by WNBA rookie


Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark got the first triple-double by a rookie in WNBA history during Saturday’s game against the New York Liberty.

Clark pulled down her 10th rebound at the 7:07 mark of the fourth quarter, which added to her 15 points and 11 assists at that time. She finished with 19 points, 13 assists and 12 rebounds as the Fever completed a fourth-quarter comeback to win 83-78.

The No. 1 pick in the 2024 WNBA draft, Clark has come close to a triple-double before, including missing by one rebound in the Fever’s victory at the Phoenix Mercury on June 30.

Clark, who wears No. 22, reached the triple-double in the 22nd game of her WNBA career. It was also the first triple-double in Fever franchise history.
