Caitlin Clark fans are up in arms after a familiar-looking reaction from Diana Taurasi.<\/p>\n

During a September 13 game against the Las Vegas Aces, Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark received her\u00a06th technical foul\u00a0of the WNBA regular season.<\/p>\n

The technical was issued after Clark smacked a basket\u2019s stanchion out of frustration a few minutes into the game because she was upset about a foul call. Many fans believed that the technical foul getting called was unnecessary, given that it was a brief display of frustration that wasn\u2019t done directly toward a referee.<\/p>\n

And Clark\u2019s passionate fanbase is upset once again on Sunday after WNBA legend Diana Taurasi did the exact same thing during the third quarter of the Phoenix Mercury\u2019s game against the Chicago Sky \u2014 and didn\u2019t receive a technical foul for doing so.<\/p>\n

X user @kenswift\u00a0posted a video\u00a0of Taurasi smacking the stanchion and wrote, \u201cHey @WNBA so this is only a Tech for @CaitlinClark22?\u201d<\/p>\n
