On Saturday afternoon, Clark became the first WNBA rookie to ever record a triple-double. Clark already had 16 points, 11 assists and nine rebounds in the fourth quarter, so all she needed was one more rebound.
It didn’t take long for Clark to grab her 10th board of the game. Once it happened, the crowd at Gainbridge Fieldhouse erupted into a frenzy. Clearly, they were aware of the fact that history was just made.
To be fair, Clark has been flirting with a triple-double for a while now. It was only a matter of time before she got the job done.
