Saturday’s matchup between the Indiana Fever, led by Caitlin Clark, and the Chicago Sky, drew an average of 2.7 million viewers on ABC. This encounter became the most-watched WNBA regular season game in the last 25 years, according to reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The game, which reached a peak of 3.1 million viewers, recorded the second-largest average audience for any league event, surpassed only by last year’s WNBA All-Star Game (3.44 million).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This figure represents the highest regular season audience since Memorial Day 2000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the game, the Fever defeated the Sky with a score of 93-58. Clark achieved a triple-double and received her first flagrant foul as a professional. Clark’s foul was on Angel Reese, preventing a clear basket, which generated tension between the players.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Following the review, Clark’s foul was classified as flagrant-1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The WNBA is investigating allegations of offensive comments or noises directed at the players during the incident. A video shared on social media shows a fan, wearing a Clark jersey and matching shorts, making high-pitched noises while Reese was shooting a free throw in the third quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On Sunday, the WNBA issued a statement informing that it is “aware of the allegations” and “is investigating the matter.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
