SOPHIE Cunningham is going to war for her Indiana Fever teammates.
Cunningham wants the world to know that Caitlin Clark is the face of the WNBA, no one else.

During an appearance on her Show Me Something podcast, Cunningham went scorched earth on anyone who tried to argue that Clark hasn’t changed the league.
“When people try to argue that she’s not the face of our league or if our league would be where we’re at without her, you’re dumb as s***,”
“You’re literally dumb as f***”
WNBA fans were baffled by Cunningham’s aggression, but agreed with her comments on social media.
“She’s easily the face of the league and it’s not close,” one fan said.
“Sophie ‘No filter’ Cunningham,” another fan said.
“Sophie you are a badass,” a third fan said.
“Love Sophie Cunningham – speak boldly and truthfully – and a helluva teammate! Great player as well!” a fourth fan said.
“She’s toast for this I love it,” a fifth fan said.
Cunningham’s comments came on the first episode of her new podcast.
She inked a deal with Colin Cowherd’s company, The Volume, for a new show.
Cunningham cohosts the show with West Wilson of Bravo’s Summer House.
The podcast debuted on Wednesday and will feature weekly guests.
“It’s an exciting time for the WNBA, and we’re thrilled to grow The Volume’s portfolio with a show that celebrates women’s sports, pop culture, and friendship,” Dane Aagaard, chief revenue officer for The Volume, told Front Office Sports.
