CHICAGO (AP) 鈥� The Fever’s Caitlin Clark was assessed her eighth technical foul of the season Saturday in a game against Chicago, and that would trigger a one-game suspension for Indiana’s next game if it’s not rescinded.
In the third quarter of the Fever’s 90-86 win over the Sky, Clark made contact with a referee when she was forced out of bounds and was called for a technical foul.
After the game, Clark said the contact was inadvertent and that no words were exchanged. She was hopeful the WNBA would rescind the foul.
鈥淪he said I ran into her,鈥� Clark said of the referee. 鈥淚 have already watched it on the tape. So, we鈥檒l let the league decide. But, it wasn鈥檛 anything intentional or anything. So, I hope it gets rescinded. And, nothing was said.鈥�
The Fever’s next game is on Tuesday against New York.
鈥淭hat’s a bad call, incidental contact when you’re flying out of control,鈥� Fever coach Stephanie White said. 鈥淚 thought her teammates should have come up and talked to her about that as well. I think that鈥檚 really bad. that (expletive) happens all the time in the game. you know, officials have to have some awareness in those moments, and it didn鈥檛 happen.鈥�
