Caitlin Clark's teammate sports two black eyes after collision with WNBA opponent

Caitlin Clark was fouled hard during the Indiana Fever’s 88-71 victory over the Connecticut Sun. Colin Cowherd says this is great for the WNBA and Caitlin Clark’s career, and he discusses how she’s impacted the league.

Indiana Fever star Lexie Hull and Seattle Storm forward Gabby Williams collided when the two WNBA teams met Tuesday.

In the days since, Hull has developed a pair of black eyes. 

Fever coach Stephanie White said the marks underscored Hull's grit. 

"Every time I see her, I'm like, 'Oh, poor Lexie,'" White said Friday. "But, you know, I think it really epitomizes Lexie's toughness when you look at her, and you see those two black eyes. I mean, she's tough as nails, you know.

"She plays all out every possession, all the time, and sometimes the result is two black eyes, and so I smile every time I see her. But it definitely is a picture-perfect viewpoint of the toughness that she brings."

In the first quarter of Tuesday's game, Hull and Williams both fell to the floor in visible pain moments after knocking heads. Trainers tended to the athletes, who were both able to eventually get up and walk without assistance. Williams checked back into the game later in the opening quarter.
