What’s crazy is that newer WBB fans might not know this is the biggest story of the night when it comes to beef I can’t get over it

Both Indiana & Connecticut denounced the officiating for allowing tensions to escalate throughout the game. Sun HC Rachid Meziane called Sophie Cunningham’s late foul “disrespectful.” Fever HC Stephanie White left it as, “I viewed it as a flagrant foul.” espn.com/wnba/story/_/i…

Clark on her “Curry!” shoutout: “He’s one of the greatest basketball players of all time…he’s really changed the way basketball is played. Maybe at times, me and him both, kids shouldn’t always chuck up a bunch of 3s… but it’s cool to be here. He’s someone I certainly idolize.”

Hopefully, Jonquel Jones won't be out long after re-injuring her ankle tonight in loss. New York Liberty coach Sandy Brondello said New York wasn't aggressive enough but acknowledged, "It’s really hard when we lose JJ. That obviously takes a little bit of the energy away from us." ...

Good win for Phoenix Mercury at New York after victory Wednesday at Connecticut. Kahleah Copper, who made season debut Sunday, was out tonight with injury management. But Alyssa Thomas (18 points, 15 rebounds, 7 assists) & Monique Akoa Makani (21 points, 6 assists) led the way...

The Valkyries beat the Fever 88-77 and move to 6-6. Kayla Thornton finishes with 16 points and six rebounds. Tiffany Hayes and Chloe Bibby both with 12. Laeticia Amihere records four blocks and nine points. But really, GSV's box score is full with contributions from everyone.

Meanwhile, Caitlin Clark goes just 3-of-14 from the field, 0-of-7 from three. This is just the second time in her career she's failed to knock down a 3-pointer -- both happening this season, per ESPN Stats & Info

Another fun stat from ESPN Stats & Info : the Valkyries are the second team in WNBA history to win multiple games by double digits as a double-digit underdog within a season (2018 Aces).

As a reminder: All-Star starters are determined by a combination of fan vote (50%), current player vote (25%) and media vote (25%). Head coaches then pick the 12 reserves. The starters with the most fan votes then get to draft their respective teams.
