Indiana Fever's Aliyah Boston stunned by technical foul in Caitlin Clark-Angel Reese clash during WNBA game, as Fever dominate Chicago Sky.

In a heated moment during Saturday’s WNBA clash between the Indiana Fever and Chicago Sky, Fever star Aliyah Boston was left dumbfounded after being slapped with a technical foul. The incident unfolded in the third quarter when Caitlin Clark fouled Sky’s Angel Reese, sparking a brief on-court confrontation.

Clark’s foul was deemed flagrant by officials, who cited her use of her left hand to push Reese to the ground as she went for a shot. Reese hit the floor but quickly got up, getting in Clark’s face. Boston stepped in to defuse the tension, only to be shocked later when she learned she’d been hit with a technical. “I got the tech? Oh, no!” she exclaimed at the postgame press conference, her disbelief palpable.

Clark, ever the diplomat, downplayed the drama. “It was just a good play on the basketball,” she said, insisting the foul was a routine take to send Reese to the free-throw line. “I’ve watched a lot of basketball. That’s exactly what it was. Nothing malicious.” She even vowed to cover Boston’s fine, a nod to her teammate’s loyalty. Reese echoed the sentiment, calling it simply “a basketball play.”

The Fever dominated the game, cruising to a 93-58 victory. Clark shone with a triple-double—20 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists—while Boston contributed 19 points and 13 rebounds. The scuffle, it seems, was just a blip in an otherwise commanding performance.
