The WNBA has suspended Phoenix's Alyssa Thomas for one game after she made contact with her fist to Caitlin Clark's throat in a matchup against Indiana. Thomas's coach speaks out and questions the investigation process. Perry Russom reports.

By “made contact with her fist” you mean she violently punched her in the throat right?

The 5 techs CC has are for clapping lmao and arguing with refs. Not physicality.

Let's not forget Alyssa Thomas pushed her knee into Caitlin Clark's groin... You know, the one caitlin injured last year that kept her out for the season 😡 @espnW

A simple gesture of helping CC up or saying my bad, didn't mean for that to happen but instead the Mercury admin made fun of it n still nothing from AT but they are standing by her like her punishment was a 10 yr bid

Yes, I too make a fist when going to grab a ball 😂

She should be arrested for assault. If it was the other way around there would be riots.

What an uninformed report Hacks Caitlin’s being BRUTALIZED

Alyssa Thomas needs to be suspended and fined. Stop the violence- it’s just basketball not a barbaric sport. 🏀

for clarity its not "appears to" knee into groin first then direct fist into jug/carotid perfect aim both assaults CC supine legs up in distress her psychotic plays r common wnba has a problem sociopathic behavior refs ignore it or enjoy it mental af

This kind of thing has been going on all season, they hate her

Look, @ABCWorldNews doing its best to excuse the Island of Los Lesbos taking vicious action against Clark. It would be annoying if it wasn’t so common with their ridiculous Woke anti-American bias in anything they do. You never see an NBA player ball a fist and shove it down into a player’s throat while prone on the floor. Never. A one game suspension is BS. Should be at least five games and a stiff fine.

Don’t need to watch the whole game ! The ball was quite visible and she made no attempt to go for the ball and somehow ended up pressing into her neck. She obviously thought she’d get away with it.

One game? Ridiculous. Why is anti-white violence acceptable in the @WNBA

“But some are coming to her defense” geez the complicity, double standard and woke underline of mainstream media is so transparent but they are so entrenched in it they are unable to see outside their bubble. If roles would reversed would they open with that line? I stopped video

Everyone knows AT is a physical player and have committed many dirty plays that’s often excuse

Black players killing the @WNBA 's golden goose Don't be stupid - you morons

I guess all the pictures and videos of her aggressively crushing her fist into Clark's neck is not enough evidence.

Her fist didn’t just “make contact” to her throat, She VIOLENTLY ASSAULTED Her and it’s not the first time. The wnba is full of double standards, Racist, Jealous, and bitter “players”. It’s disgusting

Permanent suspension of Thomas because she thinks it’s a full contact. Fire the coach because he thinks it’s OK for his players to strike other players. Or just go ahead and dissolve the @WNBA

That is thuggery & it’s been going on all season against CC. Look at all the dirty plays by AT on CC & other players across the league. League needs to make a statement, the next international abusive play that harms a player by anyone, may result in being banned for a season.

I'm not a CC fan at all, and I love seeing a physical game, but that was way too much.

Dirty player being backed by dirty reporting by the trashy networks. Sure sounds like the dirty trashy Democrats. Los Lesbos in de house.

WNBA & the Willful Disregard for the safety of Caitlin Clark.

Alissa Thomas has been doing this for a long time including Angell Reese, and many other players she has brutalized and gotten away with it.

Come on this is ridiculous already. A second and it’s a national outrage. Pathetic. Report on dump and his clown show.

One game. Wow. @WNBA is not worth watching anymore. I hope CC quits and the whole thing goes up in smoke.

It was not her THROAT, IT WAS HER NECK and NECK IS NOT THE THROAT.

Interesting and shocked they chose to get Pheonix's and their coach's side of the story.

Good

Should be more games

🧐

Looks like a reverse George Floyd incident when it's a black man is not okay and it went a white women it's okay ? What's wrong with this picture
