Caitlin Clark Shatters New Viewership Record
Caitlin Clark is rewriting the history books during her rookie season in the WNBA.
The Indiana Fever wanted to make some noise in their last game against the reigning champs but failed to do so after losing to the Las Vegas Aces 75-86.
Caitlin Clark was sensational, recording 16 points, three rebounds, and six assists.
A’Ja Wilson, who is gunning for yet another MVP, had 27 points, 12 rebounds, and two assists.
Having those two players in one game reeled in a whopping 678,000 viewers, making it the most-watched WNBA game on NBA TV ever and the most-viewed game on NBA TV in general.
According to Sports Media Watch, the game also surpassed the 2023 Game 5 playoff matchup between the Miami Heat and Milwaukee Bucks.
There is no telling what the views might be tonight as the same two teams are facing off against each other again at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
Thanks to Clark and others, the Fever are already back in the playoffs for the first time since the 2016 season.
Since the Olympics break, the Indiana Fever has an 8-3 record.
Everybody Said The Same Thing About Damar Hamlin After He Gave Tua Tagovailoa A Concussion & Knocked Him Out Of TNF Game

Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa was injured at the end of a scramble in the third quarter.
Tagovailoa left the game late in the third quarter with an apparent head injury when Buffalo safety Damar Hamlin hit him at the end of a fourth-down scramble for a first down.
It did not look good, it did not sound good. We have seen this before from Tua.

Hamlin hit Tagovailoa with a shoulder to the helmet as the quarterback fell forward, leaving Tua struggling to get up to his feet.
Following the hit, fans took to social media and couldn’t help but mention the irony in Damar Hamlin knocking out Tua Tagovailoa with a concussion based on his history of almost dying on the field.

After adding weight and training to avoid more concussions, Tagovailoa miraculously survived the 2023 season by playing all 17 games last season without a significant injury.
Head injuries were a significant cause for concern for Tagovailoa during the 2022 season when he twice landed in the NFL’s concussion protocol.
The Dolphins went on to lose the game, 31-10. Tua left with 145 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions.
Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa Is Likely To Miss Several Games
Injuries have been an issue for Tagovailoa throughout his NFL career, and they reared their ugly head on Thursday night.
Tagovailoa suffered two diagnosed concussions throughout the 2022 season that kept him out of action for four games.
Work in the offseason got him to stay healthy and appear in all 17 games last season.
With this latest concussion, Tua is likely expected to miss one or more games to ensure he will be okay.
