Brittney Griner Update: Natasha Cloud's Suspension Over Technical Foul
Latest Developments in WNBA: Natasha Cloud's Suspension
Brittney Griner remains at the forefront as Phoenix Mercury guard Natasha Cloud has been suspended for one game without pay following her seventh technical foul of the 2024 season, as announced by the WNBA.
Details of the Suspension
This suspension stems from a rule that dictates players or coaches are automatically suspended upon reaching their seventh technical foul during the regular season. Under this regulation, every two additional technical fouls lead to further game suspensions.
Incident Summary
- Cloud received her seventh technical foul with 4:24 left in the second quarter in a game against the Las Vegas Aces.
- She will serve this suspension on September 3 when the Mercury hosts the Atlanta Dream.
Diana Taurasi, another Phoenix guard, also faced a similar fate but had her seventh foul rescinded after a league review, keeping her total at six for the season.
