A Night of Records
The Chicago Sky delivered a performance that will be remembered for years, routing the Portland Pilots 124-94 in a game that turned into a showcase of offensive firepower.
At the center of the onslaught was Kamilla Cardoso, whose flawless 13-of-13 shooting night produced a career-high 30 points and rewrote the WNBA record books.
Cardoso’s perfect night was more than a personal triumph; it propelled Chicago to set both a franchise and league record for points scored, while also establishing a new standard for assists with 38.
Cardoso's Perfect Shooting Display
The 30-point outburst eclipsed her previous career-high of 27 points, which she had posted just last season, and marked a dramatic jump in her statistical profile.
This season, Cardoso is averaging 14.0 points, 8.6 rebounds and 1.7 blocks per game, all of which represent career bests and underscore her emergence as a dominant interior presence.
Team Milestones
Chicago’s 124 points set a new franchise benchmark, while the 38 assists broke the WNBA single-game record, highlighting a level of ball movement rarely seen in the league.
Historical Context
The previous mark for consecutive field goals without a miss stood at 12, a record held by Nneka Ogwumike since 2016; it was surpassed by Cardoso’s 13 straight makes. The night also echoed a 53-point explosion by Marina Mabrey the previous day, which tied the single-game scoring record shared by A’ja Wilson and Liz Cambage.
