Alright, Black and White Sports fans, let’s dive into the latest controversy involving the Chicago Sky—more specifically, Kennedy Carter. Last night, Carter was back to her old ways, crossing the line on the court in a way that left many fans shocked. In an incident that can only be described as aggressive and reckless, Carter took aim at Caitlin Clark, delivering a hit that had many questioning her intentions.

This wasn’t just a typical hard foul; it was something more. Given the history between these players, it’s hard to believe this wasn’t personal. Clark, who previously played alongside Carter’s ex-teammate Marina Mabrey, was on the receiving end of what can only be called a blatant attempt to take her out of the game. And while the WNBA hit Carter with a flagrant foul, many are asking if that’s enough.

The tension between Mabrey and the Chicago Sky has been no secret. Mabrey, who was pushed out of the team, has been vocal about the Sky’s lack of a championship mentality, something that Carter seems to have taken to heart—but in the worst way possible.

In the game, when Mabrey faced off against her former team, the animosity was palpable. As the ball came in, Carter delivered a hit that seemed more suited for a wrestling ring than a basketball court. Mabrey went down hard, and Carter’s teammates barely acknowledged the situation, instead seeming to celebrate the rough play.

This behavior from Carter is nothing new. Her history of aggression on the court is well-documented, and last night’s incident only adds to the narrative that she’s a loose cannon. The Chicago Sky and the WNBA need to take a hard look at this situation and ask themselves: what message are we sending by allowing this kind of behavior to continue?

Many fans are calling for severe repercussions—not just for Carter, but for the coaching staff that seems to condone this violent approach to the game. If the WNBA wants to maintain its reputation and continue to grow, it cannot allow players to cross the line without facing serious consequences.
