Caitlin Clark’s comment on Sophie Cunningham turns heads

Sophie Cunningham and Caitlin Clark have formed a strong bond on and off the court. The Indiana Fever acquired the veteran guard last season following a trade from the Phoenix Mercury. She has since played a key role for the team.

However, they both faced injuries in 2025 that limited them to 30 and 13 games, respectively. Cunningham and Clark returned to full strength and entered the season ready to lead the franchise to more success. The start of the campaign has been ominous for Indiana, with only a 6-5 record to show for it.

Head coach Stephanie White moved Cunningham to the bench to give the reserves more offensive firepower. She is experiencing an up-and-down campaign but will look to be more consistent in supporting Clark and the starters.
