Another added: “I love this woman.”
Cunningham’s appearance comes after she sparked outrage with negative comments over new locations for the WNBA in Detroit and Cleveland.
She said: “You want to listen to your players. Where do they want to play? Where are they going to get excited to play and draw fans?
“Miami would have been a great one. Everyone loves Florida. Nashville is an amazing city. Kansas City, amazing opportunity. There’s a huge arena downtown that no one’s using.
“And I think the women’s soccer league is showing that people draw. You don’t want teams to totally dominate then have teams that aren’t.
“It’s a hard situation, but I don’t know how excited people are to go to Detroit or Cleveland.”
Cunningham later clarified the statement, adding: “First of all, I know the history of the WNBA. I know that both of those cities have had team before and they got us where we’re at, so I’m thankful for that,
“All I was really getting at was Broadway, the off-court lifestyle and so I think that is really intriguing. I think Miami’s intriguing. That’s all I was getting at.
“I think it would be fun to get some teams outside of the NBA market… I think people totally misread the situation. I would never speak down upon middle-class, blue-collar working people.
“That’s where I come from. I’m from Missouri. I get I’m in Indiana, and that’s why I’m kind of hinting at Broadway sounds fun, Miami sounds fun. That’s all I was getting at.
“The people that hype you up are going to be the same people pushing you down. And so for me, I always just kind of stay right here in the middle. I think that was my personal opinion.”
