Chennedy Carter has been taking heat for her nasty body check on Caitlin Clark during Saturday’s game between the Chicago Fever and the Indiana Sky, but she isn’t backing down.

Carter and Clark looked to have been jawing at each other before the former decked her with a strong shoulder barge late in the third quarter.

The referees initially called an away-from-the-ball foul, but the WNBA has since upgraded it from common to flagrant-1.

A new fan video has surfaced online that suggests Clark may have actually been to blame.

The clip below shows Chennedy Carter taking an elbow to the face from Caitlin Clark while they fought for a rebound on the previous play.

“I had a feeling there was more to the reason she retaliated than just CC talking trash,” a fan wrote after watching the vid. “Something told me CC may have gotten in a shot of her own at some point prior to Carter’s shoulder & hip check. Thanks for the additional information. Neither should’ve happened though.”

 

Chennedy Carter Is Not Impressed By Caitlin Clark

Chennedy Carter refused to discuss Caitlin Clark or the foul after the game and would not get into what caused her to run into the Fever rookie.

While she wouldn’t speak to reporters about the incident, she did take to threads to call out Caitlin’s game, claiming the former Iowa Hawkeyes point guard does nothing apart from shooting threes.

“Beside three point shooting what does she bring to the table man,” she wrote in a reply on Threads.

It appears the WNBA has a new beef, and fans are loving it.

Brittany Mahomes knows all about a bunch of people coming for her for no particular reason, so for that reason, among many others, Patrick Mahomes’s wife decided to speak out in support of Caitlin Clark.

The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model took to her Instagram story to express her support for the rookie Indiana Fever guard.

Her shout-out came after Clark was pushed to the ground by an opponent during Saturday’s game between the Fever and the Chicago Sky.

The Indiana Fever vs. Chicago Sky game on Saturday was highly anticipated since it featured a first-ever professional meeting between women’s collegiate basketball rivals, Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. The Sky put up a strong physical defense against the No. 1 overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft, which has been a growing tactic against Clark this season. Late in the third quarter of Indiana’s 71-70 victory over Chicago, one of the most notable moments of this occurred.

With the Fever leading 53-49 and getting ready to inbound the ball on the baseline, Sky guard Chennedy Carter came in and pushed Clark down to the floor from behind.

Clark finished with 11 points, eight rebounds, and six assists in the Fever’s first home win of the season.
