Now that we have a quarter-of the games completed, we can look at the WNBA stats. Although standings don’t actually measure individual player performance we can still make predictions based in the past. You might be surprised at some of these numbers. These are the top WNBA statistics you can expect.

Leslie has been an inspiration to women in the sport of basketball and to people in general. Leslie has worked as an actress and model.
Sabrina Ionescu is the first WNBA player who has a 30-point triple double
Ionescu was the first player ever to record a tripledouble and score 30 points in WNBA History. Ionescu also became the first WNBA player with double-doubles in all three seasons. In preparation for the 2022 year, she rebuilt strength and speed during the offseason. She had an ankle injection before training camp started and felt ready for play. She was not yet a rookie, so she still had to get to know her teammates and her new surroundings.
Kelsey Plum leads Liberty in assists per game
After an explosive season last season, Kelsey Plum is poised to lead the Liberty in assists per game this year. The 5-foot-8 guard averaged just 5.4 assists per games to lead the team. It's not hard to see her impressive stats, as she leads league with 19.6 points per match. She is actually tied for the league's lead in assists with Alyssa Tom. In her first appearance in the WNBA All-Star game, Plum earned MVP honors and set a record by hitting 12 threes.
Parker's injury history
DeVante Peterson, the 14th overall pick in the rookie season of the Miami Dolphins, became a wide receiver. After injuring his right foot while practicing, he was unable to play for the Dolphins the first half. Parker was able to undergo surgery on the foot but missed seven games. His history of injuries became a problem, particularly at the beginning his NFL career. Parker pulled the scar tissue from his left foot after surgery and missed three preseason matches, one of which was when he was hurt.

Ionescu's triple-double
The triple-double of Ionescu was a historic feat for the WNBA. In the 116 to 98 victory over Las Vegas Aces, she scored 31 points, grabbed 13 rebounds and gave out 10 assists.
