Los Angeles Sparks star Kelsey Plum was called for a flagrant 1 foul after a hard check on Veronica Burton during Saturday’s game against the Golden State Valkyries.

Kelsey Plum was guarding Veronica Burton with less than four minutes to go and Golden State leading comfortably 68- As Burton attempted to dribble past Plum, the latter stuck out the left leg and tripped up her opponent:

Thankfully, Burton wasn’t seriously injured on the play. Plum was issued a flagrant 1 foul, and Burton would make both free throws to extend the lead. Golden State went on to win 72-59, improving to 15-15 on the season.

It was a frustrating game all around for Kelsey Plum, who finished with four points, as many rebounds and assists in the loss. She was just 1-of-9 from the field and missed all four shot attempts from beyond the arc.

At family dinner, my mother-in-law suddenly screamed that her $10,000 was missing. Before I could react, my sister-in-law pointed straight at me. “It was her! I saw her sneaking into Mom’s room!” she shouted. In an instant, my MIL grabbed a baseball bat and ordered me to confess. “I didn’t take—” I tried to explain, but the bat was already swinging—aimed directly at me and my 4-year-old daughter. Instinct kicked in; I wrapped my arms around her as my MIL roared, “Where’s my money?!” At that exact moment, the front door slammed open—my husband had just walked in.

When the door swung open, I thought I had simply come home a little early. But then everything collapsed around me: my mother lay on the floor, blood seeping from the corner of her mouth… and the phone beside her showed only one final message—my father on a yacht, hand in hand with a woman I had never seen before. In that moment, I understood that the secrets in my family were far darker than anything I had ever imagined.

In front of 52 family members, my mom held up her glass, gestured to my sister, and said proudly, “This is the daughter who’s always been there for us. The other one? She’s never done anything.” I stayed silent. No one knew that I was the daughter who’d been paying their mortgage and bills for nearly a decade. So I simply smiled, set my drink down, and walked out of the reunion. The next morning, my phone screen lit up—38 missed calls waiting for me.

The Burtons’ annual family reunion was always loud, chaotic, and soaked in cheap champagne, but…
