Overview

  • Sophie Cunningham used profane language on the debut of her "Show Me Something" podcast to dismiss any notion that Caitlin Clark is not the face of the WNBA.
  • Earlier this season, Cunningham was ejected after defending Clark on court by intervening in a flagrant foul against her by the Connecticut Sun.
  • Since Clark’s groin injury on July 15, the Fever have gone 7–7 and delivered a season-high 35-point second quarter in a recent win over Phoenix.
  • Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell have stepped up with efficient scoring and adapted offensive schemes, helping Indiana hold the league’s third-best offensive rating.
  • Commercial interests including Women of Wrestling co-owner Jeanie Buss have publicly expressed interest in partnering with Fever figures like Cunningham for promotional ventures.
