TORONTO (AP) — Kelsey Mitchell surprised by a postgame celebration after setting an WNBA scoring record in her team's victory over the Toronto Tempo on Friday night. Mitchell, who scored 33 points, walked into the locker room unaware she was the guest of honor. Her record-breaking performance saw her surpass A’ja Wilson's season total of 1,021 points in 2024.
Mitchell, who has scored at least 20 points for 25 consecutive games, scored 12 of her 17 attempts and hit 7 of her 11 3-pointers. Coach Stephanie White praised Mitchell's historic season, saying it has been "unprecedented". Teammate Caitlin Clark added that Mitchell's play this season has been "really incredible to witness". Indiana's victory extended their season record to 27-14, tying Atlanta for the best mark in the league.
