What happened: Howard hit consecutive threes during the MIN-ATL game to reach 128. Earlier Sunday, Howard extended her WNBA steals lead and forced a Minnesota timeout.
Why it matters: Sabrina Ionescu had held the standard since setting it in 2023. Howard's next made 3 would give her sole possession of the record.
By the numbers: Howard reached 100 threes in 31 games this season, two games faster than the previous pace.
What to watch: The rest of Sunday's game gives Howard her first chance to move ahead.
