Indiana Fever superstar Caitlin Clark was back on the court Wednesday night in Indianapolis, and as we’ve seen in the past, referees were not on her side despite a clear foul that could be categorized as a cheap shot.
Incident Details
Clark, who got off to a hot start in the contest against the Phoenix Mercury, was driving to the hoop when she lost her footing in the paint. Three different Mercury players tried stripping the ball from her, and succeeded in doing so. However, Alyssa Thomas had some extracurricular activity with Clark, clearly shoving her first into the point guard’s neck before stepping over her on the ground.
The incident occurred while the ball was rolling away from the area inside the paint. Despite video replay showing all of this, no foul was called despite an official clearly standing on the baseline. As a result, social media was left baffled, with many sharing their displeasure with the play.
