Gregg Doyel, a longtime sportswriter with the Indy Star, has been suspended for two months and will not protect any Indiana Fever online games this period just after his push conference incident with Caitlin Clark, in accordance to a report from Bob Kravitz.
Kravitz, a previous writer at the Indy Star himself, broke the information on his Substack on Tuesday. Doyel has not published a column due to the fact April 29, in spite of the Pacers getting in the Jap Meeting semifinals.
Doyel would not comment on the incident or similar suspension when achieved by Kravitz for comment. He is envisioned to return to operate on Monday, May possibly 13.
Doyel’s willpower stems from Clark’s introductory press conference with the Fever on April 17. In the course of the push meeting, he commenced a dilemma by providing Clark her patented heart gesture. When Clark asked if Doyel appreciated her properly-known hand signal, Doyel replied with “Start off performing it with me and we’ll get together just fantastic,” which led to an awkward glimpse by Clark.
Doyel was broadly criticized in the media for his odd experience with Clark, so it must occur as no surprise that he has been disciplined for his antics.
