Caitlin Clark got another one over Angel Reese this Sunday, leaving her 2-0 in thei matchups since they both went pro and 3-0 since they faced off in the 2022/23 National Championship Game.

The Indiana Fever hosted the Chicago Sky for the second time this season, having snatched a marginal 71-70 win in their first go-around.

The victory was more convincing this Sunday as the Fever won 91-83.

At one point during the second half, Reese had a foul upgraded to a flagrant-1 violation after attempting a block on Clark but hitting her in the head instead.

Check it out right below:

“She went for ball. Oh well,” one fan said.

“Concussion evaluation clause for the WNBA coming in three, two, one!” another joked.

“@WNBA The flagrant bullying and malicious assault needs to STOP!” another wrote angrily.

“Bad angle. She was never closer than 12 inches from the ball. Just a thug close line to the head,” said a fourth. “Again. I’d suspend her for the rest of the season. If the @wnba won’t act, then I’d take out her ACL, MCL, and LCL.”

A bit much, that last one.

Caitlin Clark Got The Last Laugh

In any case, Caitlin Clark had the last laugh on the day as her team got that much-needed fifth win to go 5-10 for the season.

The loss leaves the Sky 4-9, though they got off to a better start than the Fever.

Angel Reese had her sixth-straight double-double, however, scoring 11 points and adding 13 rebounds.

Clark scored 23 points, along with eight rebounds and nine assists.

Angel Reese impressed with a double-double during the Chicago Sky’s 91-83 loss to the Indiana Fever on Sunday, but it was her flagrant foul on Caitlin Clark that will likely generate plenty of discourse in the aftermath.

Anything involving Reese and Clark is going to receive additional attention given the high-profile nature of their rookie seasons and overall connection to each other that date back to college.

They played each other in the 2023 national championship game in college, and Reese led her LSU Tigers to a victory and then celebrated by pointing to her ring finger and breaking out the “you can’t see me” celebration that Clark herself often did. However, Clark’s lowa Hawkeyes earned some revenge with an Elite Eight win over LSU this past season.

The rivalry reached another level in their first WNBA matchup on June 1 when the Fever won 71-70 in a game that was defined by Sky guard Chennedy Carter knocking Clark to the ground. She was issued an away-from-the-play foul in the moment, and the WNBA upgraded it to a flagrant upon review.

Whether it was Carter refusing to answer questions about Clark and then criticizing her on social media or Reese being fined $1,000 for not making herself available to the media in the aftermath of the loss, the game led to plenty of back-and-forth in the aftermath.

Reese did speak to reporters after Sunday’s loss, but it wasn’t all about Clark.

She also said, “I’m not used to losing like this, but I’m gonna be mad and sad about it or I’m going to get up and figure out what I can do better.” Chicago is just 4-9 on the season and has struggled in the early going of what figures to be a rebuilding year.

But there are plenty of promising pieces in place, including notable rookies in Reese and Kamilla Cardoso. They both notched double-doubles in the loss with the former posting 11 points, 13 rebounds, five assists and two steals and the latter finishing with 10 points and 10 rebounds. As long as they both continue to improve with more experience, the future figures to be much brighter for Reese and the Sky.

One of the early narratives during Clark’s rookie season with the Indiana Fever was people questioning where her teammates have been when she is the recipient of hard fouls, especially when she was hip-checked by Chicago Sky guard Chennedy Carter during their matchup earlier this month.
