Lip-readers catch what Caitlin Clark said to earn 7th technical foul

Indiana Fever superstar guard Caitlin Clark picked up her seventh technical foul of the season on Wednesday night, putting her one technical foul away from a one-game suspension.

At least this latest technical foul was pretty funny.

She and Connecticut Sun guard Saniya Rivers both picked up techs for trash-talking at each other during the Fever blowout victory in Indy, with intrepid lip-readers catching what Clark said to get her technical foul.

"Look at the scoreboard," Clark seemed to tell Rivers during the lopsided game. That's apparently what got Clark the foul; something high school cheering sections chant at opposing teams across the country.

The refs should have just dropped both technical fouls and let Clark and Rivers do their talking and move on, but that's not what happened. Now, Clark is a tech away from sitting out for a game.

Caitlin Clark points and says "look at the scoreboard" 😬

Well, at least she gave us a laugh in the process?

When do the Fever play again?

The team heads to Seattle to play the Storm next Tuesday.
