Indiana Fever rookie guard Caitlin Clark recorded more than 300 points, 100 rebounds and 100 assists faster than any player in WNBA history during Thursday's (June 27) 89-77 loss to the Seattle Storm.

Clark recorded 15 points, seven assists and six rebounds, totaling 308 points, 126 assists and 104 rebounds through the first 19 games of her rookie season, but head coach Christie Sides said she wants the No. 1 overall pick to shoot even more.

"Caitlin Clark needs to shoot a minimum of 15 shots a game for us," Sides said via ESPN. "She's got to get shots, and we've got to do a better job of setting her up, setting some really good screens for her to get her open."

Clark is currently averaging 16.2 points, 6.6 assists and 5.5 rebounds, but the Fever are 7-12, which which included losing eight of their first 10 games in 2024. The former University of Iowa standout is the all-time leading scorer in NCAA basketball history and her collegiate dominance has led to a significant spike in the popularity of women's basketball.

The Fever have accounted for all of the five most-watched WNBA games since 2002, which includes their June 16 win against the Chicago Sky (1.3 rating and 2.25 million viewers) surpassing Clark's WNBA debut on ESPN2 Opening Night as the league's most-watched game since the 2001 Memorial Day matchup between the Los Angeles Sparks and Houston Comets, which totaled 2.44 million viewers.
