However, that didn\u2019t stop Caitlin Clark from making WNBA playoff history for the franchise.<\/p>\n<p>Clark struggled shooting the ball, finishing with 15 points on 6-of-17 shooting. She also had six of the team\u2019s 16 total turnovers, which Stephanie White cited as a major issue in the Fever\u2019s loss.<\/p>\n<p>However, the All-Star playmaker also dished out 10 assists, which is a playoff career high for Clark. Her previous personal best was nine assists against the Connecticut Sun in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, according to the Fever, Clark\u2019s assist mark is the <a href=\"https:\/\/fever.wnba.com\/news\/game-recap-fever-aces-260927\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">second-most in a playoff game<\/a> in the franchise\u2019s history. She was only one dime short of tying Tamika Catchings\u2019 record of 11 assists, which she set in 2009.<\/p>\n<p>For what it\u2019s worth, it was also Clark\u2019s first career double-double in the playoffs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Indiana Fever lost to the Las Vegas Aces in blowout fashion in Game 1 of their first-round&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":913773,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[629],"tags":[49,48,82,630],"class_list":["post-913772","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-wnba","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-sports","tag-wnba"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/913772","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=913772"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/913772\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/913773"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=913772"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=913772"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=913772"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
