Caitlin Clark records another triple-double ahead of WNBA playoffs

Caitlin Clark, one of the favorites to the favorite to win WNBA Rookie of the Year along with A’ja Wilson, was named the WNBA Eastern Conference player of the month and rookie of the month for August.

Caitlin Clark also earned WNBA Eastern Conference Player of the Week honors, and looked every bit of those labels Wednesday, turning in another terrific stat line with 24 points, 10 assists and 10 rebounds. She also grabbed three steals (she recorded seven turnovers as well).

Clark has been playing especially well since WNBA play resumed after the Paris Olympics.

Clark is the only WNBA rookie to record a triple-double in league history, and now she has two of them. She also had one on July 6 in an upset win over the New York Liberty.

The highlight of that game came in the third quarter, when Clark drove and flicked a nifty behind the back pass to Aliyah Boston, who fired a pass to Erica Wheeler on the perimeter before Wheeler drained a 3 to give Indiana a 66-61 lead.
