Yahoo Sports Caitlin Clark questions technical fouls called because she's hitting stanchions: 'Really?!'
Caitlin Clark understands that she needs to work on her frustration during games, but like us, she's surprised referees are whistling her for technical fouls because she's hitting the basket stanchion.
It happened in August, and then on Friday in the loss to the Las Vegas Aces, the Indiana Fever guard smacked a stanchion and got another technical.
"I think I could have done a better job keeping my emotions in check, but at the same time, like, really?" she told reporters on Friday. "It is a rule, so they have to call it, I get it."
Totally fair. Here's that full quote:
