WNBA does not rescind Caitlin Clark's 5th technical foul upon appeal

On Thursday, the WNBA said that it will not rescind Caitlin Clark‘s technical foul from Monday’s Indiana Fever win over the Phoenix Mercury.

The Fever had appealed the technical foul with the league’s offices. Clark will remain at five technical fouls on the season, three away from a mandatory one-game suspension.

Clark exited the Fever’s 111-109 loss against the Mercury on Wednesday night with a back injury and did not return. That puts Clark’s status into limbo for the Fever’s Saturday date against the Los Angeles Sparks inside Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

After Saturday night’s clash with the Sparks, Indiana does not play again until July 5 in Las Vegas.

Fever head coach Stephanie White had no immediate update on Clark’s injury status following Wednesday night’s contest against the Mercury.
