The most talked about play from today's game has been and will continue to be Angel Reese's foul on Clark in the third quarter.
Reese made contact with Clark's head while trying to block her shot, resulting in the infraction being upgraded to a Flagrant 1.
After the game, Reese said it was "a basketball play," and Clark agreed.
"It's just part of basketball. It is what it is. She was trying to make a play on the ball and get the block," Clark told reporters.
Now 5-10 on the season, Clark and the Fever will host the Washington Mystics on Wednesday before traveling to take on the Atlanta Dream on Friday night.
They'll reunite with the Sky for a mid-afternoon matchup in Chicago next Sunday.
