WNBA: Alyssa Thomas suspended one game for fist into Cailtin Clark’s throat

Alyssa Thomas of the Connecticut Sun was suspended for one game by the WNBA on May 23, 2024, for an incident involving Caitlin Clark of the Indiana Fever. The suspension stems from an action during their game on May 22, 2024, where Thomas, after falling to the floor, pushed a fist into Clark's throat. Thomas then stood over Clark before getting up. The league's disciplinary action was announced following a review of the play. Thomas will miss the Sun's next game against the Chicago Sky on May 25, 2024. This is the first suspension issued by the WNBA this season for on-court conduct.
