New York sportscaster takes subtle jab at Caitlin Clark amid no-foul call in Fever's loss to Liberty
LeSean McCoy reacts to Angel Reese's reaction to Caitlin Clark's flagrant foul. The Indiana Fever defeated the Chicago Sky, 93-58.
The New York Liberty visited Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever on Saturday. The reigning WNBA champions won 90-88 to keep their record unblemished.
But much of the chatter after the game centered around the game's officiating, particularly the last 10 seconds of the close contest. While there were at least three calls of note that favored the Liberty, the Fever's final possession seemed to draw the lion's share of the attention.
Clark had possession with Indiana trailing by two with a chance to tie. But New York guard Natasha Cloud knocked the ball away from Clark. Referees did not blow the whistle for a foul despite pleas from last year's WNBA reigning rookie of the year.
