Sidelined Caitlin Clark’s Heated Clash with Ref Sparks Outrage – Fever’s Loss Fuels Massive WNBA Drama!

Injured Caitlin Clark in heated bust-up with WNBA referee despite not even playing in Indiana Fever’s latest loss

The Fever head coach even voiced her displeasure with the referee after the loss.
THE injured Caitlin Clark angrily called out a WNBA referee after the Indiana Fever’s loss to the Dallas Wings on Tuesday night.

The 23-year-old superstar was spotted in a heated moment after the Fever’s 81-80 loss in Inianapolis.

Clark, who hasn’t played in close to a month due to a groin injury, argued a call after the Fever’s loss to the Dallas Wings on Tuesday.
The Fever were down one point with less than two seconds to go in the fourth quarter when guard Kelsey Mitchell chucked a three-shot attempt for the victory.

However, the ball hit the backboard instead and gave the lowly Wings their ninth win of the season.

While the 9-24 Wings celebrated the road win, Caitlin Clark, who has been sidelined with a groin injury for close to a month, walked on the court toward official Amy Bonner.

And Clark was spotted on ESPN, seemingly showing her frustration as the ref appeared to point toward the bench.

The two-time All-Star wasn’t the only Fever member who appeared to take issue with the officiating.

After the game, head coach Stephanie White called out the “double standard” in the officiating of the physical game.

“If it’s going to be physical, and you’re going to allow us to be physical, then allow both teams to be physical. If you’re going to call the holds, and you’re going to call the chucks, then call it both ways, White said, per the Indy Star.

“So, I mean, I think that we’ve been pretty consistent in what we’re asking for, and I didn’t feel like it was consistent.”

White “went up to the referees multiple times during breaks and timeouts to talk and get clarity on different foul calls,” the outlet reported.

Indiana star Aliyah Boston recorded three fouls, including a questionable call involving Wings center Li Yueru.

The Fever dropped to 18-15 with the loss.

They are sixth in the WNBA standings.

Clark has had numerous injuries in her second season.

The 2024 Rookie of the Year has been out since July 15 and she doesn’t have a timetable to return to the court.

In 13 games this season, Clark has averaged 16.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 8.8 assists.

The Fever will hope to get back in the win column on Friday against the Washington Mystics.
