The referees determined that Clark’s foul had crossed the line of a natural basketball player because she had used her left hand to push Reese to the ground. The referees also gave Boston a technical foul.

"I got the tech? Oh, no!" she said in the postgame press conference.

Boston continued to be shocked as Clark explained the foul on Reese.

"Let's not make it something that it's not," Clark said. "It was just a good play on the basketball. I'm not sure what the ref saw to upgrade it, and that's up to their discretion. It's a take foul to put them at the free-throw line. I've watched a lot of basketball in my life, that's exactly what it was. I wasn't trying to do anything malicious. That's not the type of player I am."
