6?7 WNBA Center Outrageously Spits on the Court Resulting in ?Fair? Technical Call

The on-court drive to win matches in the game of basketball often results in the players committing unethical actions. The WNBA witnessed one such incident recently when 6’7 center Teaira McCowan indulged in an outrageous event.

The punishment for the star was deemed fair, as she created yet another controversy in the league. At this stage, it seems as though the WNBA cannot catch a break.

What exactly happened?

Dallas Wings hosted the Indiana Fever on the home court after defeating them in the away fixture. After a magnificent second quarter, they entered the second half with a 54-46 lead. They managed to hold on to it right until their center, Teaira McCowan, committed a comical act.

With slightly more than five minutes left on the clock, the Fever forward NaLyssa Smith charged towards the basket. The former employer of the away team tried to block her but ended up fouling her in the process. Right after that, she spat on the court, resulting in a technical foul.

The 26-year-old shocked the commentators and fans alike as the call against her was fair by the rulebook. Dallas ended up calling her to the bench. Wings eventually lost the match, leading to their third defeat in the last five games. This makes us question one thing.

Did Teaira McCowan cost her team a crucial home win?

The entire WNBA is heating up as the playoffs come closer. Dallas is somehow hanging onto the 4th spot with the Minnesota Lynx right on their tail. That’s why they needed this win against the 10th-placed Fever, but McCowan might have cost her team that.

Her technical foul came at a crucial phase of the game. Indiana was trying their best to close the gap in point, and Teaira’s departure from the court helped them do so. From that point onwards, the hosts lost the momentum of the game as Indiana recorded 31 points in the quarter.

With a home record of 10-8 this season, things have not been easy for Dallas in the concluding part of the regular season. They may enter the playoffs with a crumbling form as the big guns wait to pounce on them. Interesting times ahead for the Wings.
