Caitlin Clark, Sophie Cunningham Whisper about Rival Amid WNBA Injury

During the Indiana Fever's recent win over the Dallas Wings, WNBA stars Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham were caught whispering on the bench, with Cunningham covering her mouth and Clark responding, "Yep, I know... she hates me." Fans quickly speculated that Clark was referring to Dallas player DiJonai Carrington, who had a past altercation with Clark in the 2024 WNBA playoffs when Carrington poked Clark in the eye, leaving her with a black eye. Despite the incident, Clark downplayed any intentional harm, but Carrington later mocked the event on social media. Cunningham defended Clark, stating that Clark is unfairly targeted by other players in the league and that the physical treatment she receives goes beyond typical rookie initiation. Clark has been sidelined for three weeks with a groin injury but remains a key figure for the Fever both on and off the court. The exchange between Clark and Cunningham has sparked widespread discussion among WNBA fans about rivalries and player dynamics within the league.
