Caitlin Clark impressed for Team USA in its 108-56 blowout win over Hungary in the quarterfinals of the FIBA World Cup.
The Indiana Fever star recorded a near double-double of 10 points and a game-high nine assists, along with three rebounds and two steals. She also had the highest plus-minus rating on the team at +36.
Team USA set a number of records in the process, including becoming the first team in FIBA World Cup history to tally 30 or more assists in a quarterfinal game. The Americans dished out 31 assists in the win.
Sure enough, Clark played a big role in achieving that record-setting mark, and Team USA made sure to put the spotlight on her.
Following the win, Team USA commended Clark’s offensive performance by sharing a post highlighting her stats in the game. The post also included a video showing one of the Fever guard’s top plays.
“Can’t Contain CC,” Team USA wrote in the caption of the post.
