Many of the newest fans Clark has brought to the WNBA have been highly critical of several flagrant fouls and other questionable hits that have been committed against her this year. In four games against the rival Chicago Sky alone, Clark has been hit by three different players on three different flagrant foul calls that drew visceral backlash from fans on social media.
