Breanna Stewart scored 24 points in New York's 93-81 win over Minnesota, taking her past Sue Bird into 9th place on the WNBA's all-time scoring list.
She now sits on 6,806 for her career, built over 10 seasons, and is averaging 20.4 points this campaign.
The gap above her is small. Kahleah Copper... no — Cappie Pondexter sits 8th with 6,811, only five points clear of Stewart, and that mark looks likely to fall in New York's next outing.
Diana Taurasi leads the all-time list by a wide margin on 10,646, ahead of Tina Charles (8,396), DeWanna Bonner (8,209) and Nneka Ogwumike (7,993). Tina Thompson, Tamika Catchings, and Pondexter round out the group above Stewart, with Bird now just below her in 10th on 6,803.
