Basketball fans are losing their minds after a clear foul on Caitlin Clark went uncalled during the Indiana Fever-Seattle Storm WNBA game on Wednesday night.
Caitlin Clark and the Fever fell just short of picking up their first win of the young 2024 WNBA season losing 85-83 to the home team in a back-and-forth thriller. With the loss, Indiana fell to 0-5, while the Storm improved to 2-3.
However, there was one notable instance during the contest when the officials failed to call a clear-cut foul while Clark was driving to the basket. Check out the clip below, where Seattle forward Ezi Magbegor gets away with an obvious foul during Clark’s layup attempt:
After this clip went viral, fans expressed disgust with the officials for somehow missing the foul that took away two possible points from Caitlin Clark:
This was a no call on Clark, but would be a flagrant 2 in the NBA.

The highest scorer in the history of Division 1 NCAA basketball was taken first overall by the Fever in last month’s WNBA Draft. Clark has lived up to the hype in the early going, averaging an impressive 17.8 points, 4.6 rebounds and 5.8 assists per game.
Clark had her best performance as a pro in Wednesday’s loss to Seattle, recording 21 points, seven rebounds and as many assists. She made 7-of-9 free throw attempts and also recorded two blocks.
Caitlin Clark & Fever Head To LA & Vegas Next
The 0-5 Fever will again try to pick up their first win of the year when they visit the Los Angeles Sparks on Friday night. Indiana will then wrap up its difficult road trip with a showdown against the Las Vegas Aces on Saturday night.
Indiana will then come back to the Midwest for a three-game homestand that begins against Los Angeles on Tuesday. They will then host the Storm in a rematch from last night’s tilt before hosting the Chicago Sky to conclude the home stand.

Today’s WNBA action is headlined by the second showdown between Caitlin Clark’s Indiana Fever and Cameron Brink’s Los Angeles Sparks.
Four days ago, Caitlin Clark led Indiana to a 78-73 victory in Los Angeles, marking the Fever’s first win of the young season. The two teams will square off in a rematch tonight at 7:00 p.m. EST inside the Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
Even though the contest features two of the WNBA’s biggest stars, ticket prices are going for shockingly low rates at TickPick, with some available for only $2:
Though lower bowl tickets are still going for over $100 on TickPick, seats all across the upper bowl are going for $9 or lower. That’s difficult to comprehend for any sporting event, let alone a basketball game featuring two rookie stars.
