But regardless of whether the elbow was intentional, the result was the same — Clark taking the of head shot most sports leagues want to prevent.
INDIANAPOLIS — Angel Reese insisted all she did Sunday was make a basketball play against Caitlin Clark.But that isn’t likely to defuse what happens next.
“I can’t control the refs and they affected the game, obviously, a lot tonight,” Reese said after finishing with 11 points, 13 rebounds, five assists and five fouls in the Chicago Sky’s 91-83 loss at Indiana . “Y’all are probably going to play that clip like 20 times before Monday.” “It is what it is, you know, she’s trying to make a play on the ball and get the block,” Clark said after finishing with 23 points, nine assists and eight rebounds in her best all-around game as a pro. “I mean it happens and then those free throws when you have to shoot with nobody at the line are kind of hard. So I was just focusing on making those free throws.”
Back then, Sky guard Chennedy Carter set a hard pick on an inbound play that sent the unsuspecting Clark to the ground. Carter was tagged with an away-from-the-ball call, which resulted in one free throw and league officials later upgraded the call to a flagrant-1.
