Dave Portnoy fumes over Angel Reese, Dana Evans fouls on Caitlin Clark: Dirtiest players in the game

This Indiana Fever clash with the Chicago Sky wasn’t going to go quietly.The Fever outlasted the Sky 91-83 in an eventful nationally televised matinee Sunday on CBS.Clark was on the receiving end of multiple hard fouls from Sky standouts Angel Reese and Dana Evans, which will undoubtedly leave “the Clarkies” furious.

Among them is Barstool president Dave Portnoy.Portnoy posted video of a play in which Evans was called for a foul for having her arm hooked with Clark, whom Evans was defending up the floor.Portnoy referred to it as “Chicago Sky doing Chicago Sky stuff” on X.

“One of these Fever girls, would you go up and knock these idiots out please?” Portnoy said in the video.At the end of the clip, with the camera focused on Evans, Portnoy said, “Someone punch her in the face.Break her nose.”This is on the heels of Clark asking people not to use her name to push their own agendas.

Later in the contest, Reese went up to block a shot on Clark and hit her across the head, which was called a foul and upgraded to a flagrant one, giving the Fever two free throws and possession.Portnoy posted a video of that play and wrote, “Shocker.

Angelo Reese and the Sky doing Angel Reese and Sky stuff.”In the video he called the Sky the “dirtiest players in the game.”This was the first meeting between the two clubs since their face-off two weeks ago, noted for Chennedy Carter’s hip-check on Clark.Clark finished the game with 23 points, nine assists and eight rebounds while shooting 7-for-11 from the field and hitting three 3-pointers.It’s one of the best efforts of her rookie campaign.

Aaliyah Boston chipped in with 19 points, 14 rebounds and five blocks.Reese recorded yet another double-double with 11 points, 13 rebounds and five assists, and Carter added 18 points, though the Sky were led by 22 points from Marina Mabrey, the leading scorer on the team this season.
