Wednesday night’s WNBA playoff game between the Indiana Fever and Connecticut Sun featured an unexpected stoppage in time involving a seemingly unruly fan.
At the end of the game’s first quarter, play stopped so that security at Connecticut’s Mohegan Sun Arena could identify and possibly remove the fan in question from the crowd.
The fan in question seemingly got into a verbal altercation with Fever rookie guard Caitlin Clark, who looked to have alerted the referees to take action against said fan.
Whatever was said to Clark by this unruly fan seemingly caused her Fever teammate NaLyssa Smith to be taken aback in shock.
The moment also seemed to sparked words between Clark and Sun superstar forward DeWanna Bonner, who had a brief skirmish earlier in the game.
Caitlin Clark got into it with a fan in the second row during the 1st quarter of Fever-Sun.

These are the types of moments you just don’t want to see at professional sporting events, and you just hope the stadium staff addressed this promptly and firmly.
