After a weekend filled with controversy surrounding Chicago Sky guard Chennedy Carter’s hard foul on Indiana Fever rookie guard Caitlin Clark, it was all smiles for Chicago in practice on Monday.
Fox 32 Chicago reporter Cassie Carlson shared a video of Carter sharing a group hug with Sky coach Teresa Weatherspoon and rookie guard Angel Reese on the practice court.
The clip comes on the same day that Weatherspoon issued a statement about Carter’s hard foul, one where she said she’s spoken to Carter about why the moment wasn’t appropriate and said it was done “in the heat of the moment in an effort to win the game.”

There has been much ado about Carter’s cheap shot at Clark, but it’s best for everyone involved that they move on and keep spirits high for the season ahead. At least from a clip and a statement, that seems to be Chicago’s aim.
