After her record-setting performance, Caitlin Clark Is Back to Being Totally Harassed and Beaten on the Court
Two nights ago, Caitlin Clark set a record that had never been done before in WNBA or NBA history.
Clark scored 45 points and had 10 assists, 4 steals, and 2 blocks in the game. She did all this in 29 minutes (less than 3 quarters) because her coach keeps pulling her from the game when she gets hot. The coach couldn’t stop Clark on Friday night; no one could.

This put Clark in a category of her own.
In WNBA history, there have been a total of 8 times when a player has had a 30 point, 10 assist game.
Caitlin Clark – 4 (74 games)
Jia Perkins– 1 (417 games)
Chelsea Gray – 1 (369 games)
Sabrina Ionescu – 1 (191 games)
Diana Taurasi – 1 (565 games)— 💛🖤 KINNICK NORTH🖤💛 (@KinnickNorth23) July 18, 2026
In doing all this, Clark won the game as well.

Clark is already better than the best.
Caitlin Clark extended her lead for most games with 50+ points scored or assisted on to 13 (in 74 games played) while Diana Taurasi at 10 (565 games played). The rest of the league has only 1. pic.twitter.com/Ot8laW0dHo

Her records are the best ever.

After the historic performance, Clark had to be stopped – by the league, the refs, her coach, and opposing players. There is an effort to destroy Clark, and it was put in motion.
Last night, a minute into the game, Clark was leveled by an opposing player who was moving and used her shoulder to flatten her on the floor. When Clark protested, the ref called a technical on Clark. Clark’s coach just sat there. This was how the game started.
Unbelievable — An illegal screen is set on Caitlin Clark by Jonquel Jones, and there’s no whistle. She completely laid her out with her shoulder!
Then they give Caitlin Clark a tech because Stephanie White just sits there. She will not fight for her best player. pic.twitter.com/9wGIYAk0Pc

Later in the game last night, Clark was smacked in the face, and surprisingly, there was no foul called on Clark. No foul was called on the player who committed the foul, either, of course.
When the announcers say it’s a foul that can’t be missed and they are not Indy announcers, you know it’s bad.
How in the hell do you miss this refs? This is a blatant of a foul as you can get. pic.twitter.com/nFkBVAF06S

This was earlier in the week.
The WNBA Ref said Caitlin initiated contact
– Caitlin is driving away from Stokes
– Stokes reaches across her arm initiating contact to slow down her speed burst (That’s illegal)
– B/c of this Stokes knee clips CC’s quad, throwing her off (That’s illegal)
2 fouls were missed pic.twitter.com/UZ6qdD5aOC

Clark’s coach keeps Clark’s time on the court to a minimum. She never needed this at Iowa. Clark is getting less than 3 quarters of playtime per game. Her coach pulls her out when she is on a roll. She never backs up Clark, messes with her, and appears to hate her while trying to stop her.
The WNBA is a mess. They hate the girl who brought the league attention.
The directive after Clark’s record-setting performance two nights ago was that the beatings will continue.
