Sports Illustrated had an interesting choice of words after Saturday’s WNBA game between the Indiana Fever and the Chicago Sky.
Although the Fever would best the Sky 90-86, the story that made headlines came with two minutes remaining in the first quarter, when the Fever’s Sophie Cunningham was clotheslined to the face by the Sky’s Dijonai Carrington in a moment that Fox News’ Outkick Sports reported left the star player with a bloody mouth.
Carrington was given a foul, upgraded to a Flagrant 2, and subsequently ejected from the game.
Sports Illustrated covered the game, but their headline called the violent foul a “Bitter Taste of Karma.”
Outkick’s Clay Travis posted a screenshot to social media platform X with the full headline that read, “Sophie Cunningham Got a Bitter Taste of Karma After Drawing Flagrant Foul in Fever-Sky.”
