Thanks to those nine assists, Clark reached 232 assists in her first season in the WNBA, suring the record held by Ticha Penicheiro with 224 from her rookie campaign in 1998.

The WNBA has returned this week after the Paris 2024 Olympics and Clark, whose absence from the national team sparked controversy in the United States, has returned with her batteries charged and two wins in two games.

The previous one was on Friday and by 98-89 to the Phoenix Mercury with another recital of the top scorer in the history of college basketball, who had 29 points, five rebounds and 10 assists.

The Fever are seventh with a 13-15 record

The New York Liberty continue to lead with a 23-4 record and this week mathematically assured their presence in the playoffs.

The New York Liberty have won six straight games and this week defeated the Los Angeles Sparks (68-103) and the WNBA champions in the last two seasons, the Las Vegas Aces (67-79).

Second in the standings are the Connecticut Sun (19-7) followed by the Minnesota Lynx (19-8) and Las Vegas Aces (17-9).
