Bueckers was able to rewrite WNBA history with her eye-catching performance against the Dream. Shortly after the final buzzer, the league took to social media to announce that the 23-year-old had surpassed Hall of Famer Sue Bird for the second-most games with at least 15 points and five assists by a rookie.

The first and only time Cailtin Clark and Paige Bueckers faced off at the WNBA level was on July 13. Clark led the Indiana Fever to a dominant 102-83 win over the Dallas Wings with a 14-point, 13-assist double-double, drawing first blood in what is expected to be a long and competitive rivalry between these two young stars.
