It has been almost a week since Caitlin Clark struck the Heaven of Chicago Angel Reese at the court during the 93-58 victory in Indiana fever, but the speech around the situation is far from over.
While some considered the fault of the third quarter as a regular basketball game, which is the approach that the two all-Rookie selections of the WNBA 2024 adopted after the match, many around sport consider it much more.
There are many questions about how Clark and Reese are officiated and if the discussions surrounding their rivalry are beneficial for the game. Caroline’s head coach Gamecocks, Dawn Staley, expressed his reflections on the question as simple as possible when he appeared on the podcast “The Breakfast Club”. Staley revealed that not only WNBA officials have a difficult concert, but the more sport is the attention of Reese and Clark, the better.
“I think the officer has difficult work,” said Staley. “To decipher whether or not it is 1 or not.
While many fans and analysts have been indignant by the incident, Staley said that she would adopt the same approach as Clark and Reese to remedy it.
“I’m going to take the lead of Angel and Caitlin,” said Staley. “And this advance is that they said it was a fault, the officials did things well and we are moving forward. I’m going to take their lead.”
She also added that she was looking forward to seeing the two stars clash later this season. After the competition on Saturday, Clark holds the series of the series while the fever won four of the five meetings.
Regarding the moment when Staley and the rest of the WNBA fans will be able to see them again play, they will have to wait until June 7, when the teams compete in the WNBA commissioner’s cup.
