Nothing appears to throw Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark off her game. She said her fifth technical of the season in Sunday’s win motivated her to play better.
Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark received her fifth technical foul of the season during her record-breaking night on Sunday, and she is just two more shy of receiving a one-game suspension.
However, the WNBA star says she is thankful for it.
Clark broke the WNBA rookie assists record in Sunday’s win over the Seattle Storm, when she put up 23 points and nine assists. However, things got a bit testy for the No. 1 overall pick in the third quarter when she missed a 3-pointer with the Fever leading by four with just a little over seven minutes remaining.
“I got a technical for basically being mad at myself because I missed the three, and I went and hit the backboard, and he told me it was disrespectful to the game of basketball”, Clark said after the game.
