Indiana Fever make Caitlin Clark announcement on Saturday

Caitlin Clark achieved another career milestone in their game against the New York Liberty on Saturday.

The Indiana Fever faced the Liberty for the fourth game in their current five-game road trip, and Clark has moved up on the leaderboard for the most three-pointers made in franchise history.

Clark shot 2-for-6 from downtown, and it was enough for her to surpass Briann January for the No. 4 spot in the category with 243 three-pointers made. January had 250 games to do it, but Clark only needed 87 games with the team.

The former Iowa star finished the game with 21 points, four boards, seven dimes and one steal, but it wasn’t enough to get them past New York, and they still absorbed a 109-102 defeat.

Indiana was still proud of this career milestone of the 2024 WNBA Rookie of the Year Winner and posted it on the team’s official X account.

“congrats to Caitlin Clark on moving into 4th in franchise history in three-pointers made

Indiana Fever also announced Kelsey Mitchell’s record-extending performance

Aside from Clark’s three-point field goal feat, her backcourt duo, Kelsey Mitchell, also made history during the same game against the Liberty.

Mitchell extended her WNBA record, scoring 20+ points for 22 straight games after finishing with a team-high 25 points. She also had four assists and one steal.

The second overall pick in the 2018 WNBA Draft broke the previous record of Las Vegas Aces superstar A’ja Wilson on Thursday against the Dallas Wings, who previously had 20 consecutive games.

Mitchell is leading the Fever’s scoring load this season with 24.6 points, and the four-time WNBA All-Star is also the franchise leader in most three-pointers made with 780 in 315 games.

At this rate, her teammate Clark could potentially eclipse her in this category.
