Chicago Sky guard Chennedy Clark continued the well-known physicality Caitlin Clark has been receiving in the WNBA during their game against the Indiana Fever on Saturday. But Carter took it one step further.
Clark was leveled to the floor by Carter late in the third quarter. Carter received only a personal foul for the hit during the game. However, the WNBA later upgraded it to a flagrant foul.
The Fever wound up winning the game by one point, but the story of the day was this cheap shot.
On Monday, Carter spoke to the media alongside Angel Reese and accused Clark of a violent move before the dirty foul.

“I think I got hit in the head the play before. It was just like one of those things that was in the heat of the moment. I don’t know Caitlin, I don’t know her from anywhere. But at the end of the day, this is hoops, it’s competitive, this is basketball. And you’re playing against somebody like me. I classify myself as a dog.” (Via WGN News)
The play Carter was referencing was posted online by a fan.
“So if you’re gonna throw a punch, I’m gonna compete with you. I’m gonna play at the level you’re giving,” Carter added.
The Sky will play their next game in Chicago as they host the New York Liberty on Tuesday, June 4. The Fever are in the midst of a few-day break and will face the Washington Mystics on Friday, June 7.
