Kelsey Mitchell officially rewrote the WNBA record books on Friday, setting a new single-season points record that leaves her name etched in history. The Indiana Fever star has been on an absolute tear all year, and this latest achievement proves her 2026 season is one for the ages.
The Record-Shattering Shot
It was a clutch three-pointer in the third quarter against the Toronto Tempo that sealed the deal for Mitchell. That bucket pushed her season total to an incredible 1,023 points, securing her spot at the top of the WNBA’s all-time single-season scoring list. What a moment for the Fever and for every fan watching!
A Legend Surpassed
Mitchell’s dominant performance officially put her past A’ja Wilson’s previous WNBA single-season points record. Wilson, a force in her own right, had set the bar at 1,021 points just two years prior in 2024. To not only break that record but to do it with such style really highlights the relentless drive Mitchell has shown all season long. She’s not just good, she’s historic.
Kelsey Mitchell’s historic 2026 season continues rolling, and you gotta wonder what else she’s got in store for us. We’re all watching to see what other milestones this Fever star can hit before it’s all said and done.
