Caitlin Clark’s actions toward referees on the court might result in a significant WNBA fine.
The game on Friday night left the Indiana Fever irritated.
The Indiana Fever defeated the Phoenix Mercury at home on Friday night to earn a crucial victory and extend their winning streak to ten games. Caitlin Clark put up a big offensive line, grabbing six rebounds, 13 assists, and 20 points.
But the entire night wasn’t without its challenges. Even though the Fever led by 12 points at the end of the first quarter, Clark thought the refereeing was subpar. She was so much so that she was overheard criticizing them in front of them.
During the Fever-Mercury game, Caitlin Clark yells at the officials, “Wake up, you guys are so bad.” Make a t-shirt out of that.
It seems that not everyone has the same sentiments about WNBA referees as Clark does. Many people who agreed with her assessment of the WNBA’s officiating during the year left comments under the post on X. Although a good number of fans agreed, some used the film to demonstrate how frequently Clark “whines”.
On Sunday, Clark and the Fever will play the 16-7 Minnesota Lynx in an effort to maintain their push for a Top 3 Eastern Conference position.
