In a heated matchup between the Indiana Fever and Chicago Sky, the rivalry between players Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese escalated when Clark committed a hard foul against Reese. The incident led to a confrontation which required mediation from fellow players. The referees reviewed the play, categorized it as a flagrant foul, and issued double technical fouls. Despite the tense moment, both players continued to contribute to their teams' efforts, with Clark leading at halftime with 12 points and Reese grabbing nine rebounds.
Reese then jumped up and confronted Clark as Fever center Aliyah Boston jumped in between the two players.
During an in-game interview with ESPN, Clark said there was "nothing malicious" about the foul and called it a "basketball play."
