Caitlin Clark has been rewriting the record books during her rookie season in the WNBA. Just this week, the 22-year-old sensation set a new WNBA record for most assists in a single season. She added to her historic tally with eight more assists in the Indiana Fever’s thrilling **110-109** victory over the Dallas Wings on Sunday. Not only did she extend her assist record, but Clark also set a new personal best by scoring **35 points** in the game. It’s clear she’s making a massive impact in her debut season!
On August 11, 2024, at the Paris 2024 Olympic Summer Games, women’s basketball icon **Lisa Leslie** took a moment to show her support for Caitlin Clark before the women’s gold medal game between France and the United States. Leslie, a two-time WNBA Champion, two-time WNBA Finals MVP, three-time WNBA MVP, eight-time All-Star, and eight-time All-WNBA First Team honoree, has been a staunch advocate for Clark throughout her rookie season.
Earlier in August, Leslie praised Clark for breaking the record for most three-pointers made by a WNBA rookie. On Sunday, after Clark set a new personal best with **35 points** in a game, Leslie continued to shower her with accolades. She not only celebrated Clark’s remarkable achievement but also took a swipe at the critics who had doubted the rookie’s potential. Leslie’s support underscores the significant impact Clark is making in her debut season, and it’s clear that her contributions are resonating with basketball legends and fans alike.
Lisa Leslie took to Instagram to comment on @espnw’s post celebrating Caitlin Clark’s impressive **35-point game**. Leslie couldn’t help but enjoy a little moment of vindication, writing, “Now I’m just laughing at all the folks who thought it was going to take her some time to adjust. I told ya’ll!”
Leslie’s support for Clark has been unwavering. Back in March 2023, she drew a parallel between Clark and two WNBA legends, Diana Taurasi and Sue Bird, during an NCAA Final Four broadcast. Leslie praised Clark as a “game-changer,” highlighting her potential and impact on the game.
It’s exciting to see such a revered figure in the sport continue to champion this rookie’s incredible journey. Leslie’s enthusiasm and recognition only add to the buzz surrounding Clark’s remarkable debut season.
