To celebrate WNBA Assists Week, the league shared a minute-and-a-half-long highlight reel of Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark‘s best dimes from her rookie year. The video posted on X on Friday featured some of the reigning Rookie of the Year’s most incredible passes from the past season, of which there were quite a number.
The fans appreciated how the WNBA paid homage to Clark, who ended up leading the league in assists in her debut campaign. In 40 games played in the regular season, the 22-year-old averaged 8.4 assists per contest, along with 19.2 points, 5.7 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 3.1 triples.

At the same time, however, the fans on social media could not help but notice a glaring mistake on the now-viral post from the WNBA’s official X account. This is after the league’s social media team mistakenly stated that Clark finished the season with “321 total dimes,” when she, in fact, had 337 assists to her name in 2024.
Apart from amassing over 180,000 views in less than eight hours (as of writing), the post has also produced thousands of reactions and comments from users on X. Unfortunately for the WNBA, many of them were fans calling them out for their inexplicable blunder.
“337. You tried and we’ll just start there,” a reaction read.
“337 sheesh 🙄” wrote a reader.
“U do know she had 337 assists right ? This is the new record,” pointed out another.
“Caitlin Clark had 337 regular season assists and then 17 more from her 2 post season games. How hard is it to get basic stats correct?” asked a disgruntled supporter.
“@wnba 337 is the number of assists. Why are you so bad at this?” complained another.
“337 assists, does this account even try to look up stuff 🥲” a reaction read.
For what it’s worth, the WNBA has over 936,000 followers on X, so there has to be a full team behind the account that goes through a proper vetting process before these posts go out for public consumption. For some reason, however, they still made a considerable error here — involving the biggest name in the league, no less.
