Kelsey Plum offers sage advice to Caitlin Clark as Iowa guard closes in on Plum's NCAA scoring record

Before Iowa's Caitlin Clark, fans watched Kelsey Plum chase the all-time NCAA women's basketball career scoring record with the University of Washington.

Years later, Clark is on the cusp of breaking Plum's historic mark of 3,527 points. While the Las Vegas Aces star is delighted to see Clark raise the bar, she's been consistent in her messaging that the accomplishment might not be all sunshine and daisies.

Plum set the record Feb. 25, 2017, scoring 57 points in the Huskies' 84-77 home win over Utah. The performance, which lifted her over Missouri State guard Jackie Stiles' career tally of 3,393 set in 2001, came at the peak of a stressful time.
