Tempers flared early in the first half of Game 2 of the Indiana Fever–Connecticut Sun first round matchup on Wednesday with Caitlin Clark nearly getting into an altercation with veteran DeWanna Bonner after a no-call foul. 

Clark’s emotions were on full display in the first quarter, but a missed call on a potential landing zone foul by Bonner appeared to set off the star rookie.
