Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark finished her WNBA rookie season with numerous records. In addition to her unprecedented statistical averages, Clark broke the WNBA's single-season assists record and single-season rookie scoring record.

After a 2-9 start, Indiana made quick progress on those fronts. The Fever won seven more games than last season, breaking a seven-year playoff drought. They finished in the top half of league standings and were a trendy pick to upset Connecticut in the first round, or at least take a game from the Sun.

Caitlin Clark is the WNBA Rookie of the Year in the wake of a season that saw her rewrite the league and Indiana Fever record books and finish fourth in Most Valuable Player voting.
