Caitlin Clark had a rough night Tuesday ‘cause she wound up on her ass after getting into one helluva fight with some players from the opposing team.
It all started in the third quarter of the Indiana Fever and Connecticut Sun’s matchup at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis, IN. The Fever’s phenom locked horns with Sun point guard Jacy Sheldon and tensions boiled over in a big way.
Caitlin Clark, Tina Charles and Marina Mabrey were all assessed technical fouls after this play.
Check out video, which shows Clark — also a point guard — dribbling the ball with Jacy aggressively blocking her from getting anywhere close to the basket.
Yet, Clark tries but fails to maneuver past Jacy, who repeatedly bumps Caitlin with her body. Then Jacy apparently pokes Clark in her eye and gives her a shove.
Clark is clearly in pain as she covers her eye with her hand as Sun center Tina Charles wags her finger at Caitlin.
Then things took an even worse turn for Clark when Sun shooting guard Marina Mabrey jumped in, knocking Caitlin to the floor.
After all the dust cleared, Mabrey, Charles and Clark were given technical fouls, while Sheldon was issued a flagrant 1 foul for unnecessary contact against another player.
Later in the game, Sophie Cunningham fouled Sheldon hard as she was driving to the basket, which sparked an even bigger scuffle.
