Caitlin Clark Gets Heartwarming Message From Lisa Leslie After Breaking WNBA Record

All eyes will be on No. 22 when the Indiana Fever take the court. Caitlin Clark was in the WNBA spotlight during her rookie season in the league, but she wasn’t afraid of the challenge.

After breaking the league’s record for most three-pointers made in a single season during Wednesday night’s win over the Connecticut Sun, Clark received heavy praise from one of the league’s all-time greats.

Clark broke Rhyne Howard’s 2022 record when she made her 86th 3-pointer of the season, earning a congratulatory message from Lisa Leslie.

“Congrats (Caitlin Clark) I am so proud of you and you are just getting started!! Let it rain,” Leslie wrote on X, alongside a series of emojis.

The three-point record isn’t the only eye-opening feat Clark accomplished during her rookie season. Clark broke the league’s all-time single-game assist record when she dished out 19 dimes against the Dallas Wings in July. She also became the first rookie ever to record 400 points, 100 rebounds and 150 assists in a season and the first rookie ever to record a triple-double.

Clark took the league by storm in her first 31 games as a pro and her play caught the attention of three-time MVP, two-time WNBA champion and Hall of Famer Leslie.
