On Sunday, Caitlin Clark was hit in the head by Angel Reese and more brutally treated by rivals Chicago Sky, prompting Dave Portnoy to lead the outrage.
On Sunday, Clark and the Indiana Fever played against Chicago for the first time since the No. 1 pick in the WNBA draft was brutally called by Chennedy Carter earlier this month.
The Fever won that first game 71-70 on June 1, but the game was overshadowed by Sky defenseman Carter’s hip foul on Clark before an inbounds play.
It was ruled a foul foul, but was changed to a flagrant foul the day after the game.
However, it didn’t take long on Sunday before Clark was once again targeted by Reese, Carter and their Sky teammate Dana Evans.
As Clark was driving toward the basket in the first quarter, Evans threw her arm over Clark, hooked her and held on to stop her momentum.
However, when Clark pointed out the foul to the referee, Evans pushed her hand away from Clark and appeared to say something before smiling at the Fever star.
It prompted Barstool Sports chief Portnoy to post a clip of the spectacle on X and write, “Chicago Sky is doing Chicago Sky things.”
Then, in the third quarter, Clark went to the ba
The ball clearly missed the former LSU player, who continued to hit Clark in the head with his forearm.
After Reese’s foul, Portnoy wrote: “This is shocking. Angelo Reese and Sky doing Angelo Reese and Sky things. By the way, Caitlin cooks them.
Clark stunned once again as she helped the Fever defeat Chicago again. This time it was 91-83 and Clark had 23 points, nine assists and eight rebounds.
Portnoy is a huge fan of Clark and recently complained about her snub on the Olympic squad
The body check, which took place earlier this month and Carter said she did not regret the decision, sparked several days of social media controversy that divided fans and led to accusations of racism from both sides.
In his speech before Sunday’s game, Carter said: “I’m just ready for tonight’s game.
“I don’t care what people say. I don’t care what they say. I’m locked up.
Clark has tried to stay out of the discussion, but recently made it clear that she doesn’t want her name used to push political agendas. She also said she didn’t need Carter to apologize for the foul.
“Basketball is competitive. I understand,” Clark said. “Sometimes emotions get the better of me – this has happened to me many times throughout my career. People are competitive.
“(Carter) has had a great season. She played great basketball. In my opinion, she probably finished first in the Sixth Player of the Year poll.
