News Update : Brittany Mahomes Shares Support for WNBA Star Caitlin Clark After Foul Drama: ‘Keep Doing Your Thing’ “It’s incredible to see what you’re doing for the game and women’s sports!!”
The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model, 28, who is married to Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, shared a message of support for the rookie Indiana Fever guard in an Instagram Stories post on Sunday, June 2. The shout-out came after Clark, 22, was pushed to the ground by an opponent during a game between the Fever and the Chicago Sky on Saturday, June 1.
“@caitlinclark22 keep doing your thing!!” Brittany — who is a former soccer player — wrote in her message to the athlete. “You’re a baller and it’s incredible to see what you’re doing for the game and women’s sports!!”
Brittany’s support of Clark came on the same day that the Associated Press reported that the WNBA had reviewed Chicago Sky guard Chennedy Carter’s foul against Clark, in which Carter, 25, shoulder-checked and hip-checked Clark unprovoked before a play, knocking her to the ground.
Officials initially called the physical contact an away-from-the-ball foul and opted not to review the play. However, per the AP and other reports on Sunday, June 2, the foul was upgraded to a flagrant-1 violation after review by the WNBA.
