It has been a WNBA season unlike any other and the last day of the campaign was no exception with Diana Taurasi, Caitlin Clark and Tina Charles shining brightly.

It has been a WNBA season unlike any other. The 2024 campaign has seen unprecedented growth, records shattered and an introduction to one of the most hyped rookie classes in the history of the league – and we still have the postseason to go. Eight of the 12 WNBA teams make the playoffs and are seeded from one to eight, regardless of conference. The regular season came to a close on Thursday night with all 12 teams in action.

Though Clark didn’t catch Ionescu’s tally in the game – she played just under 20 minutes with the 20-20 Fever having already secured the sixth seed – she made two triples to take her total to 122, passing Taurasi for second place. Indiana’s return to the playoffs for the first time since 2016 marks an incredible turnaround for the team. The franchise found itself 3-10 to open the season, but caught fire after the Olympic break to claw its way back to .500 and secure a spot in the postseason.
