We start on the hardwood, where history was made in the WNBA last night. Caitlin Clark put on an absolute clinic, dropping a franchise-record 45 points and dishing out 10 assists to lead the Indiana Fever past the Seattle Storm in a 110-to-107 thriller. With that performance, Clark becomes the first player in WNBA history to ever record a 40-point, 10-assist game.
