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.

Saw the game. The Sky are a really bad team.

At this point, she is probably wondering if she’d be safer in the WWE.

The fact that this thread even exists means that we're talking about the WNBA... which we otherwise would not be doing.

This is a win for the league, and as long as it's considered newsworthy neither the team nor the league will do anything to stop it.

It's not about basketball.

It's part of culture wars.

Can’t believe this thread. Hilarious over-the-top comments that you just have to laugh at.

Maybe so... but regardless of why it's going on, the league won't do a thing to change it as long as the dollars are coming in.
