Paige Bueckers' Teammate Involved in Caitlin Clark Incident Makes Strong Statement

The Indiana Fever have been missing Caitlin Clark during her injury absence. 

Indiana started 0-2 with Clark's injury and recently picked up their first win without the WNBA All-Star. They're now 1-2 with Clark sidelined, having defeated the Washington Mystics 85-76. 

While the Fever look to improve without their star guard, another hyped-up team, the Dallas Wings, is also playing with a star sidelined. 

Paige Bueckers has been sidelined for the Wings, currently on concussion protocol. 

During her time on the sideline, the Wings played the Seattle Storm, losing 83-77. Dallas star DiJonai Carrington received a flagrant foul. Carrington delivered a hard foul to Skyler Higgins in the loss to the Storm, decking the WNBA star on a fast break. 

After the game, Carrington took to social media, sending a message to fans calling her a "dirty player." 

"Yall fAnS swear i’m such a dirty player," Carrington said. "I’m SO over this narrative bc if u really know bball, u know I jus play hard asf & never give up on a play. &yup, we challenged the last couple flagrants & got em rescinded bc I’m ALWAYS tryna make a play on the ball nun more, nun less."
