Kelsey Mitchell has turned the 2026 WNBA season into the most prolific scoring season in league history.
The Indiana Fever guard has broken the WNBA single-season scoring record, established a new league record for consecutive 20-point games and surpassed the previous WNBA single-season three-point record.
Those achievements add to an already extensive collection of Indiana Fever franchise records Mitchell accumulated during her first eight seasons in the league.
Here is a breakdown of the major records Kelsey Mitchell has broken and where her numbers currently stand.
What Is Kelsey Mitchell’s WNBA Single-Season Scoring Record?
Mitchell owns the record for the most total points scored in one WNBA regular season.
She broke the previous mark of 1,021 points, established by Las Vegas Aces star A’ja Wilson in 2024, during Indiana’s September 18, 2026 victory over the Toronto Tempo.
Mitchell entered the game needing 21 points to surpass Wilson. She broke the record with a third-quarter three-pointer and finished the night with 33 points, raising her season total to 1,034. [CBS Sports]
She has continued extending the record.
After scoring 22 points against Washington on September 20 and another 20 against Minnesota on September 22, Mitchell reached 1,076 points through 43 games. [StatMuse]
| Player | Season | Points |
|---|---|---|
| Kelsey Mitchell | 2026 | 1,076 and counting |
| A’ja Wilson | 2024 | 1,021 |
Mitchell also became the first guard in WNBA history to score 1,000 points in a season. [The Athletic via Yahoo Sports]
How Many Consecutive 20-Point Games Does Kelsey Mitchell Have?
Mitchell owns the WNBA record for the longest streak of consecutive games with at least 20 points.
She originally established the single-season record when she scored at least 20 points for the 16th consecutive game in Indiana’s August 8 victory over Chicago. That moved her ahead of Wilson’s previous single-season mark of 15. [WNBA]
Mitchell then kept going.
She surpassed Wilson’s longer 20-game streak that had stretched across the 2023 and 2024 seasons, giving Mitchell the overall WNBA record.
After scoring 20 against Minnesota on September 22, Mitchell’s streak reached 27 consecutive games with at least 20 points. [WNBA]
That means Mitchell has gone more than half of the 2026 regular season without scoring fewer than 20 points in a game.
What Is The WNBA Record For Consecutive 20-Point Games?
The current record is:
Kelsey Mitchell — 27 consecutive games and counting in 2026.
Wilson previously owned the longest streak spanning multiple seasons with 20 straight games, while her single-season record had been 15. [WNBA]
Did Kelsey Mitchell Break The WNBA Three-Point Record?
Yes.
Mitchell has also surpassed the WNBA record for most three-pointers made in a single season.
Sabrina Ionescu had set the previous league record by making 128 three-pointers for the New York Liberty in 2023.
Mitchell reached 128 herself during the September 18 game against Toronto. She then made three more against Washington and two against Minnesota.
That gives Mitchell 133 made three-pointers through September 22. [RealGM]
| Player | Season | Three-Pointers |
|---|---|---|
| Kelsey Mitchell | 2026 | 133 and counting |
| Sabrina Ionescu | 2023 | 128 |
| Caitlin Clark | 2024 | 122 |
Ionescu’s 128 had been the WNBA single-season record before Mitchell passed it. [League Leaders]
What Indiana Fever Three-Point Record Did Mitchell Break?
Before passing the WNBA record, Mitchell first broke the Fever’s franchise record for three-pointers in a season.
Caitlin Clark had made 122 three-pointers during her 2024 rookie season.
Mitchell passed Clark during the September 18 game against Toronto and finished that night with 128 threes. [The Athletic via Yahoo Sports]
Her total has since risen to 133.
Does Kelsey Mitchell Hold The Fever Career Three-Point Record?
Yes.
Mitchell became the Indiana Fever’s all-time leader in made three-pointers before the 2026 season.
She surpassed the previous franchise record held by Tamika Catchings and entered 2026 with 669 career threes. [WNBA]
After making 133 more during the 2026 season, Mitchell has increased her career total to 802 regular-season three-pointers.
That total also places her among the most prolific three-point shooters in WNBA history.
What Fever Scoring Records Did Mitchell Set In 2025?
Mitchell had already rewritten several Indiana scoring records one year before her historic 2026 season.
During 2025 she scored 890 points, establishing a new Fever record for total points in one season. [Indiana Fever]
She also averaged approximately 20.2 points per game, breaking a franchise record that Tamika Catchings had held since 2003. [Indiana Fever]
Both records have effectively been blown away by Mitchell’s 2026 production.
She currently has 1,076 points and is averaging approximately 25 points per game. [StatMuse]
How Many 30-Point Games Does Kelsey Mitchell Have?
Mitchell also owns the Fever franchise record for the most career games with at least 30 points.
She passed Tamika Catchings during the 2025 season when she recorded her 11th career 30-point game. [WNBA]
Mitchell has continued adding to that total in 2026.
Her September 18 performance against Toronto was already her ninth 30-point game of the 2026 season alone. [The Athletic via Yahoo Sports]
Did Kelsey Mitchell Hold The Fever Single-Game Scoring Record?
Mitchell set what was then the Fever’s single-game scoring record when she scored 38 points against the Connecticut Sun in 2019.
She also made nine three-pointers in that game, another Indiana franchise record at the time. [WNBA]
Mitchell later tied her 38-point career high during Indiana’s dramatic 2025 comeback against Connecticut. [Indiana Fever]
Those marks should be distinguished from Mitchell’s current league records because other Fever players can subsequently surpass franchise single-game marks while Mitchell’s performance remains part of the team’s record history.
What NCAA Record Does Kelsey Mitchell Hold?
Mitchell was breaking records long before she reached the WNBA.
At Ohio State, she made at least one three-pointer in 92 consecutive games from January 2016 through March 2018.
The NCAA recognizes that as the Division I record across both men’s and women’s basketball, surpassing the previous combined mark of 88 consecutive games held by Illinois’ Cory Bradford. [NCAA]
What Ohio State Records Does Kelsey Mitchell Hold?
Mitchell remains one of the greatest scorers in Ohio State basketball history.
She finished her college career with 3,402 points and still holds Ohio State’s career scoring record.
She also holds the Buckeyes’ record with 497 career three-pointers and became the only player in program history to record four consecutive seasons with at least 500 points. [WNBA]
How Many Points Does Kelsey Mitchell Have In 2026?
Through Indiana’s September 22 victory over Minnesota, Mitchell has:
- 1,076 points
- 25.0 points per game
- 133 made three-pointers
- 27 consecutive games with at least 20 points
She has played all 43 of Indiana’s games to this point. [StatMuse]
Indiana still has one regular-season game remaining, meaning Mitchell can extend all three of her major 2026 records before the playoffs begin.

Could Mitchell Extend The Records Again?
Yes.
Indiana has one regular-season game remaining, a September 24 road game against the Minnesota Lynx.
Every point Mitchell scores will increase her WNBA single-season scoring record, every three-pointer will extend her league three-point record and another 20-point performance would push her historic scoring streak to 28 consecutive games.
