Crossing The Line Between Competition And Bullying

Carter's Cheap Shot on Clark Raises Questions

Crossing the Line between Competition and Bullying

June 1, 2024

In the winding seconds of the third quarter of Saturday's game between the Chicago Sky and the Indiana Fever, Sky guard Chennedy Carter made a play that has sparked outrage and debate.

With the Fever getting ready to inbound a pass, Carter drilled a third-quarter jumper against Indiana Fever's Caitlin Clark and then proceeded to shoulder check her. The impact sent Clark to the ground, and she was slow to get up.

The play was widely condemned by fans and analysts, who called it a "cheap shot" and an act of "bullying." Carter was ejected from the game, and the Sky went on to lose 85-76.

The incident has raised questions about the line between competitive play and unsportsmanlike conduct. Carter is known for her aggressive style of play, but many believe that she crossed the line on Saturday.

The WNBA has not yet announced any disciplinary action against Carter, but it is expected that she will be suspended for at least one game.
