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.

Trpišovský: Soupeři se báli, odmítali nám přípravy. V Lize mistrů obstojíme

Kollerschlag (Od našeho zpravodaje) – Na rakouském soustředění po jídle vstane od stolu, rozhlédne se po ostatních členech realizačního týmu, nahodí lišácký výraz a trochu provokativně poví: „Tak koho odpoledne porazíme v tenise?“„Je to krásný a pohybově komplexní sport, který mě moc baví. Raději hraju čtyřhru, protože jsem se kdysi ve druhé lize o poločase tak rozčílil, až jsem si rozdrtil kloub na malíčku. Prst mi zpevňuje titanová destička, kvůli tomu držadlo rakety držím jen čtyřmi prsty. Ve čtyřhře se aspoň handicap trochu líp skryje,“ vypráví Trpišovský zaníceně o oblíbené letní kratochvíli.„Přes sezonu si na ni moc čas nenajdu. Je hodně povinností, příprav, nočních návratů a cestování. Soustředění beru i pro sebe jako možnost, kdy se chystám na sezonu. Chodím taky cvičit nebo na kolo.“Čas příprav se ale chýlí do konce.Nejvyšší soutěž má výkop příští pátek. Obhájci titulu do ní vstoupí o dva dny později doma s Hradcem. Mimochodem, česká […]

Durante os intervalos ou quando terminavam as audiências do julgamento onde se tentava estabelecer eventuais responsabilidades criminais pela morte de Diego Armando Maradona, havia gritos, discussões e brigas que tinham como protagonistas as juízas Julieta Makintach, Verónica Di Tomasso e Maximiliano Savarino, magistrados responsáveis pelo julgamento, que finalmente foi declarado nulo.
