Another Caitlin Clark game, another record falls.
Clark's record-setting road show continued Tuesday night as the Indiana Fever met the Las Vegas Aces at T-Mobile Arena.
The game, which Las Vegas won 88-69 to extend its winning streak to five games, was attended by 20,366 fans, the most in that arena's history, which opened in 2016.
It was also the fifth-most attended game in WNBA regular-season history and the most since the 1999 season.

The crowd was only 308 short of the WNBA record of 20,674 in a 1999 contest between the Washington Mystics and the Cleveland Rockers. Two games this season have been attended by 20,000 or more fans, both featuring the Fever: Tuesday's game and a June 7 game at Washington's Capital One Arena, which drew 20,333.
Kelsey Plum led the Aces (11-6) with 34 points, with A'ja Wilson adding 28 points, nine rebounds and five blocks. Clark, who was named a WNBA All-Star, had 13 points and 11 assists but turned the ball over six times. Kelsey Mitchell led the Fever (8-13) with 23 points.
