Caitlin Clark put on a clinic Tuesday night, leading the Indiana Fever to a dominant 113-91 win over the Toronto Tempo — a franchise so new that half the audience was probably doing a double take when the score appeared.
Oh, and the win was the fourth consecutive victory for the scorching-hot Fever.

But the biggest milestone of the night was Clark reclaiming the top spot on the WNBA assists leaderboard. She recorded 14 assists in just 32 minutes.

She was equally effective when looking for her own shot.
Clark finished with 21 points, forcing Toronto to respect her scoring ability and preventing defenders from keying solely on her passing.

By balancing her responsibilities as both a facilitator and scorer, she kept Indiana’s offense difficult to predict. She also added five rebounds.
Orchestrating an offense that produced 113 points and a 22-point victory margin was a nice reminder from Clark of her WNBA dominance.
Frankly, we’ve never seen a player like her, though some have already forgotten.
