WNBA - English
What started as a typical midseason game between the Indiana Fever and the Phoenix Mercury turned into the epicenter of a media storm. A clip recorded in the final seconds of the game shows Brittney Griner reacting angrily to a foul, a moment that quickly became fuel for controversy.
Despite the lack of audio, a viral video of Griner‘s reaction has been interpreted by some as a verbal attack on Caitlin Clark. The incident created a tense atmosphere and sparked debate about the limits of respect and competitiveness in the WNBA.

“Trash fucking white girls,” Griner allegedly said, although it is unclear whether she actually said that because the statement is based on lip-reading speculation.

Brittney Griner’s alleged comments have been condemned
The clip of Britney attacking Clark went viral, sparking a heated debate on social media-understandably so.
Ron Harper, a former Chicago Bulls player and friend of Michael Jordan, posted his opinion on last night’s events without hesitation.
“They will always test Caitlin Clark, not because she is white, but because she is one of the best players in the WNBA. Stop thinking this is about color...” he wrote on his X account.
The WNBA is currently navigating a sensitive period following the launch of its “No Room for Hate” initiative in response to a recent incident involving Angel Reese.
However, fans are now questioning the apparent lack of reaction to comments attributed to Brittney Griner. Many are demanding a firm and equitable stance that reflects the values of the campaign.
The reality is that the league has yet to comment, and it does not appear likely to do so. This is causing concern and upset among Indiana Fever and Caitlin Clark fans. Justice is not being served, and patience is running out across the WNBA.
Clark has not commented on the situation either, as it seems the Indiana Fever star does not want to lose focus on her team’s upcoming league commitments.

Shohei Ohtani injury update: Dodgers manager sets ‘realistic expectation’ for pitching debut ahead of live BP
Getty Images Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani will soon take the next major step toward his eventual return to the mound. Ohtani on Sunday will pitch live batting practice at Citi Field, which means he'll be facing hitters for the first time since late in the 2023 season. Ohtani had originally been slated to throw BP on Saturday, but Ohtani and the Dodgers opted to push back the session after Friday's series opener against the New York Mets was delayed by rain and then went 13 innings, manager Dave Roberts told reporters. During Saturday night's broadcast (LAD-NYM GameTracker), Roberts also told Ken Rosenthal that the "realistic expectation is after the break" for Ohtani's eventual return to the rotation. In spring training, Roberts said a May return was in play, so perhaps that suggests a return early in the second half […]
Alex Bregman is injured but Rafael Devers will remain at DH. Who will play third for Boston?
BOSTON — Alex Bregman is on the injured list for the foreseeable future with a right quad strain. His absence is not only a significant blow to the Boston Red Sox lineup, but they now must figure out who plays third base in Bregman’s stead. Red Sox manager Alex Cora made one thing clear on Saturday: Rafael Devers will not replace Bregman at the hot corner.AdvertisementIn 51 games, Bregman hit .299 with a 938 OPS and 11 homers. To take Bregman’s place on the roster the Red Sox promoted top infield prospect Marcelo Mayer, who started at third base and batted sixth in the second game of Saturday’s doubleheader. The team transferred Triston Casas to the 60-day IL to make room for Mayer.Prior to Saturday, Mayer had played just six career games at third base, four this season in Triple-A […]
