BREAKING NEWSAngel Reese smacks Caitlin Clark in the head after more fouls by her Chicago Sky teammates as Dave Portnoy hits out at their brutal treatment of WNBA's No. 1 pick

Caitlin Clark was smacked on the head by Angel Reese and subjected to more rough treatment by her Chicago Sky rivals on Sunday, causing Dave Portnoy to lead the outrage.

Clark and the Indiana Fever played Chicago on Sunday for the first time since the No. 1 overall pick in the WNBA Draft was brutally bodychecked by Chennedy Carter earlier this month.

The Fever won that first meeting 71-70 on June 1 but the game was overshadowed by Sky guard Carter's hip-check foul on Clark before an inbounds play.

It was ruled a common foul, only to be upgraded to a flagrant-one foul the day after the game.

But, on Sunday, it didn't take long for Clark to be targeted by Reese, Carter and their Sky teammate Dana Evans again.

If she were my son getting bullied I would tell her to punch the offender in the face. However in this case Clark is clearly in an entirely different weight class than these beasts. I would still tell her to deck one of them but first she needs to have her teammates back her up and break up the fight before the offender can counterattack, but I don’t know that she can trust her teammates.

I appreciate the updates. All part of the culture war. To each his own.

“Racism is a live and well in the wnba.”

Are you accusing the WNBA of “black priviledge”?

This is what happens when people who thought they were best-in-class in their field find out that they aren't. Being coddled all their lives does them no good when the realities of adulthood hit them squarely in the face and they are unprepared to deal with it maturely.

One day, someone is going to go too far and seriously injure Clark with a career-ending injury. Players in other sports have been arrested for assault for engaging in contact that is not deemed to be part of the sport. It's about time someone gets a severe fine, suspension, or arrest, if they keep targeting Clark for violent moves that are outside the norms of basketball play.

It is incredible how this is allowed to be celebrated. Can you imagine if the show were on the other foot. I hate to hear about it.

I had to get away from pro sports many years ago due to the obvious agenda.

Those three are nothing but racist ghetto rats who would have no problem shooting Clark in a drive by in the streets of Chicago or LA.......

That’s outright racism and the players need to be expelled from the league or the league needs to be sued out of existence

A good high school men's (or boy's) team could beat these WNBA teams. The hype for the league doesn't match the product, which most people realize after watching a few games. Supporting women's sports is fine, but equating it to the male version is ridiculous.

As for the trashy behavior, it's the ghetto "culture" that stupidly has been celebrated for 3+ decades - why should they stop if they are being cheered on?

Nope.

Pervert privilege.

I bet you a dollar none of this would be happening if she just did a little muff diving.

Hi.

The NBA did the exact same thing to Larry Bird for his rookie season

Between Bird , McHale and Parish that shit ended.

JEALOUSY and HATRED and BLACK RACISM abound in the WNBA.

In all seriousness, the treatment she is getting from the other players is generating a lot of publicity for the WLGBTQNBA. The league won’t be making them clean up anytime soon, at least as long as no one is getting seriously hurt.

All she has to say in the presser after EVERY game is...”because I’m Caucasian.”

This also applies to the WNBA:
