Overview
- Clark sits on seven technical fouls after the league rescinded an Aug. 8 technical that had briefly pushed her to eight.
- Under WNBA rules an eighth technical in the regular season triggers an automatic one-game suspension while totals reset for the playoffs.
- Clark returned from helping Team USA win the World Cup and says she is making a conscious effort to warn and work with referees to avoid another technical.
- The Fever have clinched a playoff spot with a reported 26-14 record and Clark is averaging about 22.5 points and 8.4 assists, so her availability matters for the team’s closing games and seeding.
- Because the final regular-season game would reset totals for the postseason, Clark effectively must avoid technicals in three of the Fever’s last four regular-season games to prevent a suspension.
