Fathers are protectors, and today, we honor Fathers. On the basketball court, your protectors are your teammates, and one of them finally came to Caitlin Clark’s defense.
The Chicago Sky once again clashed with Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever on Sunday, and, as we have come to expect from the Sky, they got physical often and early. In the first quarter, Clark drove to the basket, where she got fouled by Chicago’s Dana Evans and contacted by Chennedy Carter.
Nothing unusual, right? No, not at first. But what’s different about this play is that someone from Clark’s team, guard Kristy Wallace, actually came to defend her.

Even more refreshing, Clark’s other teammates cacked Wallace after she got between Clark and Evans. That is actually how it is supposed to work.
