Caitlin Clark continues to prove why she’s a generational player after tying the record for the most 20-point, 10-assist games in WNBA history. Clark accomplished the feat 350 games faster than former record-holder Courtney Vandersloot.
The Indiana Fever have started the season 1-1 through two games but Clark has been nothing short of phenomenal in her second WNBA campaign. After recording a triple-double in her season debut versus Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky, Clark followed it up with an impressive 27 points, 11 assists, and five rebounds in a 91-90 loss versus the Atlanta Dream.
The performance also helped Clark set a new WNBA record with six games of at least 25 points and 10 assists, ing NY Liberty star Sabrina Ionescu. Five of those games came during her historic rookie season.
Clark Ties WNBA Record In 388 Fewer Games Than Vandersloot
| Player | 20-Point, 10-Assist Games |
Total Games Played |
| Caitlin Clark | 10 | 42 |
| Courtney Vandersloot | 10 | 430 |
| Diana Taurasi | 9 | 565 |
Clark’s talent has been on full display early in her career. She’s now recorded at least 20 points and 10 assists 10 times in her WNBA career, tying Vandersloot’s mark despite playing in 388 fewer games. To put things into perspective, it took Vandersloot 392 games to reach 10 games with 20 points and 10 assists. Vandersloot, who remains active at age 36, is in her 16th WNBA season and has played 430 career games compared to Clark’s 42.
Clark also sured WNBA legend Diana Taurasi, who recorded nine 20-10 performances in 565 career games. Vandersloot and Taurasi are both future Hall of Famers, but neither reached this milestone with anywhere near the same pace or efficiency.
Clark’s combination of scoring and playmaking has redefined what’s possible at the guard position, and she’s doing it while still adjusting to the pro game. At just 22 years old, she’s set a new standard that future stars will struggle to sur.
Clark Is Undeniably The WNBA’s Biggest Star
For the second straight year, Clark has been the biggest draw in the league and her star power is even more evident on the road, where opposing teams raise ticket prices and move games to bigger arenas to accommodate the additional demand.
According to a Sportscasting report, the Caitlin Clark effect causes tickets to rise by an average of 125.7%. The average ticket price to see Clark in action on the road is $106.32 in 2025 and the Fever are the road team for six of the top 10 most expensive games of the season.
Clark is producing at a historic rate and doing it under a spotlight few players in league history have ever faced. She’s putting up eye-popping numbers while carrying a franchise, driving league-wide revenue, and elevating the WNBA’s visibility across every platform.
Clark’s presence has elevated not only the Fever but the entire WNBA. National broadcasts featuring Clark routinely set new records and her rivalry with Angel Reese has reignited interest in the league. Their fierce competitive spirit has started national debates and their most recent battle drew an audience of 2.7 million viewers on ABC, making it the most-watched regular season game in the last 25 years, according to The Athletic.
If this is what Year 2 looks like, sky’s the limit for both Clark and the league.
