How many more assists Caitlin Clark needs to break all-time WNBA record

Caitlin Clark has been on fire for the Indiana Fever, recently scoring 37 points and delivering 10 assists in a 113-90 victory over the Chicago Sky. This performance propelled her to become the first WNBA player to achieve five games with 30 or more points and 10 or more assists. No other player in the league has ever accomplished this feat, as the entire WNBA has only managed to do so a combined four times.

Currently, Clark sits at 742 career assists in 88 games, placing her just one spot behind Sheri Sam with 745 assists. Sue Bird leads the WNBA with 3,234 career assists, followed by Courtney Vandersloot, Ticha Penicheiro, Diana Taurasi, and Lindsay Whalen. To match Bird's record, Clark needs an additional 2,492 assists, which would require playing approximately 297 more games.

Given that Clark is 24 years old and Bird retired at 41, it appears that Clark has ample time to break the record.
