Kennedy Carter was not having any Caitlin Clark discourse after losing to the Indiana Fever on Saturday afternoon.
The shooting guard finished the highly-anticipated contest between the Fever and the Chicago Sky with a game-high 19 points, shooting 8-of-12 from the field, but she was unable to help her team to a win as the Fever snagged their first home victory of the season to move to 2-8.
Carter went viral for her nasty body check on Clark late in the third quarter, appearing to call her a “B-” before decking her with a jolting shoulder barge.

“I ain’t answering no Caitlin Clark questions,” she said during the postgame presser.

Caitlin Clark Calls Chennedy Carter Out
Caitlin Clark, on the other hand, had something to say about the foul after the game.
The former Iowa Hawkeyes star was quizzed on the incident by ESPN and claimed the check was not a basketball play.
“Yeah, that’s just not a basketball play,” she said (H/T the New York Times). “But you know I’ve gotta play through it, that’s what basketball is about at this level. I thought we’ve been really physical, we’ve missed some bunnies around the rim, so hopefully those fall in the fourth.”
Clark and the Fever are scheduled to play the New York Liberty this Sunday and will hope to get the better of them this time around.
