Teaira McCowan was not a fan of the officiating during a Wings-Fever matchup. After she was ejected for getting a technical during an exchange with Aliyah Boston, she diabolically waived to nearby cameras.

The referees during a Dallas-Indy thriller were not really high up on McCowan's list before she was ejected. She was already sitting on one technical and had given them a thumbs-down gesture earlier in the game.

Then, late in the 4th quarter, Teaira exchanged words with Aliyah Boston, eventually shoving her mid-conversation, which earned her another tech — Aliyah got a tech, too — and a subsequent ejection. The wild thing was there were not even two seconds left on the game clock. So, McCowan seemingly waited in the visitors' tunnel for her team and then diabolically waived to nearby cameras.

In a stunning twist of events, WNBA fans actually thought her wave was pretty spectacular. They loved it. Here's how they reacted:
