Caitlin Clark got very excited about possibly breaking a Sue Bird WNBA All-Star Game record for a hysterical reason

Indiana Fever rookie guard Caitlin Clark brought her A-game to this year’s WNBA All-Star Game, and she got close to breaking another big league record during the contest’s third quarter.

After landing nine assists in the game at that point, Clark broke the WNBA rookie record for assists in an All-Star Game and got close to matching Sue Bird’s all-time record for assists in an All-Star Game with 11.

As soon as ESPN broadcaster Ryan Ruocco told Clark about how close she was breaking Bird’s all-time record during a mid-game interview, she immediately got fired up.

Why you ask? Clark joked that she was now intent on breaking it because Bird had been talking trash to her on the sideline while the latter was in the stands.

“It’s Sue’s? OK, then I’m breaking it,” Clark told Ruocco. “She’s been talking crap all game.”

Clark literally just broke one of Bird’s records the other day in her stellar performance against the Dallas Wings, and she sure sounded motivated to break another for a delightful reason in this very funny mid-game interview.
