If one thing is clear, it’s that Caitlin Clark does not like the drama around her and fellow WNBA star Angel Reese.
When Clark was asked about the flagrant foul she committed against Reese during the Fever’s 93-58 blowout win over the Sky in Saturday’s season-opener, the 23-year-old insisted that it was a smart play.
“Let’s not make it something that it’s not,” Clark said after posting the third triple-double of her career. “It was just a good play on the basketball. I’m not sure what the ref saw to upgrade it, and that’s up to their discretion. It’s a take foul to put them at the free-throw line. I’ve watched a lot of basketball in my life, that’s exactly what it was. I wasn’t trying to do anything malicious. That’s not the type of player I am.”
