Caitlin Clark’s Six-Word Reply To Dirty Foul By Chennedy Carter
Caitlin Clark’s Six-Word Reply To Dirty Foul By Chennedy Carter
During the weekend, the highly anticipated matchup between the Indiana Fever and the Chicago Sky took place. The game was an epic battle between two college rivals, Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. This game marked their first face-off in the WNBA.
During the game, in a controversial play, Sky guard Chennedy Carter took a deliberate and forceful action against Clark, knocking her down during an in-bounds play. This action, which seemed to be motivated by personal reasons rather than being a legitimate basketball play, only resulted in a personal foul being assessed. Many observers believe that the severity of the action warranted a flagrant foul instead.
At the end of the third quarter, Clark interviewed with ESPN and replied in six words to the dirty foul, saying, “That’s just not a basketball play.”
“That’s just not a basketball play. But, you gotta play through it. That’s what basketball’s about at this level,” Clark said.
Clark has notably been receiving physical play on her since entering the WNBA, but this play was unacceptable.
