She broke the record set by Augustus, who did it while playing for the Minnesota Lynx.
Bueckers was the fourth-fastest WNBA player to reach 1,000 points, and one of the reasons she got to the record was her consistency.
The Wings guard took 75 games to get to the record, while Augustus who previously held the record took only 68 games.
Bueckers will be hoping to add more points to her name in the final two regular-season games.
The Wings are in the middle of a six-game winning run. If they go on to win their last two matchups, they could end up as the fourth seed in the WNBA, provided the Atlanta Dream and Indiana Fever lose their games.
