Caitlin Clark achieved a WNBA milestone in the Indiana Fever's 92–75 win over the Seattle Storm on Sunday, breaking the rookie record for assists in a season set by Ticha Penicheiro in 1998.
However, something else happened in the game that looms over the Fever's remaining 12 games of the regular season. Clark picked up a technical foul midway through the third quarter for hitting the backstop behind the basket in frustration after missing a 3-pointer.

The call itself was questionable.
