Caitlin Clark shoved in neck during Fever game as another apparent foul on star goes uncalled
Key Points:
- Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark was involved in a controversial incident during a game against the Phoenix Mercury, where Alyssa Thomas shoved Clark into her neck and stepped over her on the floor without a foul being called.
- The no-call sparked outrage on social media, with critics labeling Thomas' actions as a "cheap shot" and accusing the league of unfair treatment toward Clark.
- Clark, who has previously faced physical play without fouls being called, also is currently under review for a technical foul received in a prior game against the Mercury related to "clapping and instigating."
- Despite the incident, Clark continued to perform well before leaving the game in the third quarter due to a back injury, finishing with 19 points and eight assists.
- The WNBA is still deliberating on technical fouls from the recent Fever-Mercury games, including those assessed to Clark, Thomas, and others involved in on-court altercations.
