Caitlin Clark scored a career-high 45 points and had 10 assists for the first 40-10 game in WNBA history to lead the Indiana Fever to a 110-107 victory over the Seattle Storm on Friday night.

Clark, who also had four steals and two blocks, also became the fastest player in WNBA history to make 200 career 3-pointers in 74 games, breaking the previous mark of 81 set by Katie Smith.

Clark shot 11 of 18 from the field, 6 of 10 from 3-point range and hit 17 of 19 free throws to set a franchise scoring record. 

Kelsey Mitchell scored 30 points for the Fever (15-10) and Monique Billings added 16.

Dominique Malonga had 28 points and 14 rebounds for Seattle, which lost its fourth in a row.

It appeared Flau’jae Johnson had a fast-break layup, but Clark hustled back and blocked the shot off Johnson and out of bounds with 54.9 seconds to play. Clark then hit a 3 from the left wing that made it 105-102 and made 4 of 4 from the free-throw line in the final 17 seconds to seal it.

Clark scored 10 points in a 12-4 run and capped the spurt with a 3-pointer that made it 49-32 with 7:28 left before halftime.
