Fever revokes Scott Agness's credentials over Caitlin Clark injury reporting
Summary

Scott Agness, an experienced Indiana sports reporter, has had his credentials revoked by the Fever following his reporting on Caitlin Clark's injury status. Agness claimed that Clark's late scratch from the May 20 game against the Fire was part of a strategy, not due to injury. The Fever refuted this, stating Agness spread unsubstantiated information. Following the incident, Clark expressed that she made the decision not to play based on her confidence and health, as clarified by Fever's coach, Stephanie White. Agness's situation remains unresolved, with no formal process for credential reinstatement communicated to him by the Fever.
