WNBA stars Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham appeared to be caught gossiping about a fellow player during the Indiana Fever’s win over the Dallas Wings on Friday.
The duo were filmed talking on courtside, with Cunningham holding a towel over her mouth to avoid giving away what she was saying.

However, Clark seemingly responded: “Yep, I know… she hates me.”
Although it was unclear who the duo were talking about, some fans have already started to speculate.
Clark previously had a feud with Dallas player DiJonai Carrington, who poked her in the eye during the WNBA playoffs last year while playing for the Connecticut Sun.
The 23-year-old was left with a black eye as a result and later told reporters: “Obviously, she got me pretty good in the eye.”
Carrington mocked Clark by recreating the incident a month later during an Instagram live with girlfriend and fellow WNBA star NaLyssa Smith.
Meanwhile, Cunningham jumped to her team-mate’s defence recently by claiming that she is unfairly targeted by other WNBA players.
Speaking on her new podcast, the 28-year-old said: “You have seen players in our league try and toughen up Caitlin.
“Even when I wasn’t on her team. I know the talks that Phoenix had in the locker room.
“‘No, we’re going to show her what the W really is’. I get it to a certain extent.
“Every rookie coming into the league, that’s how you’re going to treat them.
“But there’s just more for her. Now, being on her team, I’m like: ‘What are people doing?!’ It’s just too much.”
Clark has been unavailable for the Indiana Fever for the last three weeks due to a groin injury.
