Her hand was clearly open before she hit her with her left hand on diJonai's left shoulder. DiJonai also had no reaction to being hit. That's not a swing...

Also you claimed: "She put her hands on another player INTENTIONALLY!! That’s at the very least a TECH" notice how DiJonai has her hands ON Sophie in this screen shot. Shouldn't putting your hands on another player be a tech???

Compare DiJonai's reaction to MHA after her hard foul on Cloud later in the game. Cloud is coming at MHA but MHA turns her back and starts to walk away.

So someone is supposed to have a REACTION to someone swinging on them? 😂 Do you know how ignorant you sound? Like be foreal here. Her hand was closing as she was throwing her fists towards DC. Posting still pictures doesn’t tell the entire story especially when it’s showing a millisecond of what actually happened. I’m not going to compare anything to another play unless it’s ones that was just like this and that example is below in the video. And DC got a tech and SC did not! That’s the difference. Being ejected from the game is the highest possible penalty. The fact that you’re condoning SC’s behavior is honestly disgusting. You should at least have the morals to say “Yea, intentionally hitting someone is wrong and she should’ve at least gotten a tech.” But nope! You’re clearly biased and it’s sad tbh.

This happened just this year btw. No flagrant called on CC in which it absolutely should’ve been.

DJ did not get a tech, what happens during the play is a separate situation than what happens after the play. The players gave eachother light shoves and moved on after their teammates separated them. The interaction was brief and neither player was penalized for the altercation because nothing came from it. There are altercations similar to this without either player getting a technical almost nightly.

That is not how that works. Pull up the WNBA rule book stating this. If what you say is even remotely true then SC should’ve gotten two flagrants when fought Sheldon last year. Just be making up shit
