During the WNBA season opener between the Indiana Fever and the Chicago Sky, a heated exchange occurred between Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. The incident was sparked by a flagrant foul committed by Clark on Reese, which led to a confrontation between the two players. Both Clark and Reese received technical fouls, while Clark’s teammate, Aliyah Boston, also received a technical foul for her involvement in the altercation

Following the game, which the Fever won 93-58, both players downplayed the incident. Clark defended her actions as a strategic "take foul," while Reese acknowledged the media-fueled portrayal of her as a "bad guy" but reaffirmed her contribution to women's basketball. Despite their composure, the incident has intensified the existing rivalry between the two, which dates back to their college days.
