The Boston Celtics finished off the job as expected on Monday night, defeating the Dallas Mavericks 106-88 in Game 5 and clinching a record-breaking 18th NBA title. Some suggest it was a ‘gentleman’s sweep’. But while celebrations, reaction and analysis continued into the early hours, and will likely not end anytime soon, there was another moment in the replay clips that grabbed attention and went viral across social media.

What did Doris Burke say about Caitlin Clark?

Indiana Fever’s Caitlin Clark has been making plenty of headlines herself this year, but could not have envisaged doing so with the likes of Tatum, Brown and Doncic on court. But she did.

As the commentators on ESPN reflected on the above physical exchange between Mavs’ Washington and Celtics’ Porzingis, Doris Burke chimed in with: “If that were Caitlin Clark, it might spark a debate for a week.”

The clear reference to what many see as faux outrage in women’s basketball right now, it certainly sparked further debate from online readers.
