Fever Player Violently Thrown to the Ground, and What the Horrible WNBA Referees Did Next Will Shock You
Everyone can officially turn the page on the football season. For good this time.
Indiana fever is over. Damn. Finished. On the way to Cancun as we speak! Indiana lost to Las Vegas in Thursday night’s playoff game and will now ride off into the sunset after giving us the greatest summer of content since 1967.

Caitlin Clark is on hiatus until next May. Sophie Cunningham is free to develop her content off the field, including her podcast and Instagram page. I imagine she will do both and do them well.
SEASON ENDED: CAITLIN CLARK LEAVES EVERYTHING ON THE FIELD WITH A BLOODY MOUTH AS FEVER FALLS IN GAME 3
As for guard Lexie Hull…she’ll likely spend at least part of the offseason in an ice bath after being thrown to the ground like a rag doll in Game 3 last night.
Take a look:
WNBA referees are the worst of the worst
The entire sequence is so perfect for the WNBA. Everything is good – and everything is bad – in this league.
The refereeing is just horrible. This is number 1. We forget how horrible the officials are most of the time because there is so much other nonsense that happens, but at the end of the day, they are without a doubt the worst officials in all of sports.
Remember earlier this summer when Sophie Cunningham had her teeth knocked out on an elbow and no foul was called? Amazing. Same thing here with Lexie Hull.

It is essentially put in a cuff then violently thrown to the ground… and SHE was whistled for the mistake! What are we doing here? Just one suplex in a WNBA game, and the person receiving it gets the whistle.
Amazing.

Meanwhile, the clueless referees simply allow the Aces to proceed with the free throw, thus ending any hope of a review. And then they continue their game.
No explanation. No criticism. No nothing. Just a Fever player knocked to the ground, a few free throws from Aces and a few zebras looking as helpless as ever.
See you in May, WNBA.
Good riddance.
