Diamond DeShields fouling Caitlin Clark (Photos via @JoshReynolds24 X)
Caitlin Clark has already had a lot of drama surrounding her this WNBS season. Much of that drama comes from other players who don’t respect Clark because of her rookie status and think people hype her up too much.
Possibly, the latest example of that was this brutal cheap shot that Diamond DeShields of the Chicago Skjy took on Clark as she was dribbling down the court.
The foul has many fans outraged, thinking that it was on purpose just because of who Clark is.
“Hahahahaha they brought DeShields in there to as a goon. Down 25 with 3 minutes and she got 3 fouls on Clark, including that one. We ALL know what that was about,” one comment said.
“DeShields better get suspended for assaulting a player on the court. This is the type of play that made the WNBA unpopular. Nobody wants to watch that,” another said.
“Catlin averages 4 free throw attempts a game but against Chicago went to the line 11 times because they were getting blown out and kept fouling her in frustration but the sky is a dirty team as we’ve seen under Weatherspoon and a terrible team now 11-20 with 5 straight losses,” a third added.
Many fans though DeShields should have also been ejected for the play, but ultimately was not.
Caitlin Clark Has Led Indiana Fever To .500 Record
The Indiana Fever has been one of the worst teams in the league for quite some time now. However, they struck gold when they could take Clark with the first overall pick last year.
Now Clark is repaying them by leading them to a .500 record as of Saturday. The Fever sits with a 16-16 record. The team has not finished with a record of .500 or better since 2017, when they finished 17-17.

Like most others, Michael Jordan is attempting to make the most of his summer by taking a pleasant vacation. Online footage of the NBA legend traveling to Italy with his spouse, Yvette Prieto, has just surfaced.
In one video, Jordan and Prieto can be seen dancing at a table at what seems to be a nightclub. Like in his playing days, the six-time champion smokes a cigar on his night out. The pair eventually lose themselves in the intensity of the occasion and start dancing. Michael Jordan and his spouse traveled to Italy in elegance, as anticipated. The Chicago Bulls icon is currently on a superyacht.
Several memorable moments occurred during the evening, such as the amusing present from the nightclub: a tambourine with their faces from the same night’s picture. Prieto held the unique gift up for Jordan to see, and it caused grins and laughter.
Jordan also interacted with people on their Capri excursion, shaking hands, striking pictures at their table, and dancing with them. His approachable manner and eagerness to interact with people emphasized his genuine nature even more.
