Napheesa Collier's petty Instagram post makes the WNBA's officials look so bad
It's safe to say that Napheesa Collier is not happy with the way the Lynx's season ended on Sunday night.
The controversial foul call on Alanna Smith that sent Breanna Stewart to the free throw line and, eventually, allowed the Liberty to win in overtime has been the biggest talking point from Game 5 so far.
Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve said the game was "stolen" from Minnesota with that call. If looking at her Instagram is any indication, Collier seems to agree.
She posted a photo carousel of her journey with the Lynx this season. The last three photos were of three different foul calls, including the last one that did seem like it should've been a no-call.

Talk about petty.
The Liberty won the series and absolutely earned their championship — there's no disputing that. But seeing things end the way they did certainly isn't a great look for the WNBA's officials. That's the thing everyone is talking about today.
Just when you thought the spotlight on the officials and their controversial call might finally clear up, here comes Collier with this Instagram post. She ain't letting up, folks.
It's hard to blame her. Lose a game like that and you'll probably never get over it. We'll be talking about that last call for years to come.
