Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark pointed out a fan to referees during her team’s first-round road playoff game against the Connecticut Sun on Wednesday evening. Those officials then spoke with security, who removed the fan from his seat.

This incident came after Clark appeared to exchange words with Sun forward DeWanna Bonner. The two got into it earlier in the game, when Clark felt Bonner didn’t give her enough space to land after she took a three-pointer. No foul was called.

The Sun entered Wednesday leading the best-of-three series one game to zero after taking the opener Sunday, 93-69.
ESPN cameras caught the fan speaking with security after being taken away from his seat. However, he was quickly allowed to return, per Scott Agness of Fieldhouse Files.

It’s not immediately clear what the fan did to draw Clark’s (and later security’s) attention.
Clark was asked about the chippy first quarter after it occurred:
"Stay focused about what's on the floor."

Clark was named the Associated Press’ unanimous Rookie of the Year after leading all first-year players in numerous categories, including scoring (19.2 PPG), assists (8.4 APG) and steals (1.3 SPG). She also paced the WNBA assists (337) and three-point field goals made (122).
