Now, she's set a WNBA rookie record with 44 points on 17-of-21 shooting. Unfortunately for Bueckers and the Wings, it was Kelsey Plum and the Los Angeles Sparks who came away with a last-second victory to officially eliminate Dallas from playoff contention.
Plum is on pace to match Taurasi with two such seasons and turns 31 later in August (Taurasi turned 31 in June of the season she FIRST notched 20-plus and five-plus feat). So since we know her averages, it’s no surprise that Plum tied the WNBA record for most 20 and five games in a single season with her 18th of 2025 on Sunday.
