The game itself was decidedly one-sided, with Clark’s Fever dominating in a 93-58 victory over Reese’s Sky. Both players displayed their elite skills despite the confrontation:
| Player | Points | Rebounds | Assists | Shooting |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Clark | 20 | 10 | 10 | 6/13 FG |
| Reese | 12 | 17 | – | 5/14 FG |
Clark’s triple-double performance included four three-pointers, while Reese showed her rebounding prowess with 17 boards, including 7 on the offensive glass.
This incident adds another chapter to their competitive history, which has featured physical play from both sides. Interestingly, last season featured a similar scenario but with reversed roles, when Reese committed a flagrant foul against Clark.
The officiating crew’s decision to assess a flagrant foul appeared appropriate given the contact, and both players continued competing after the brief confrontation.
