You think you know all there is to know about Caitlin Clark. She’s great, famous, charismatic, and popular. The Queen of the WNBA and Miss America/Miss Universe, as proclaimed by Sammy Sportface.
But get this: she’s not the most popular player on her own team.
It’s someone else.
Like Caitlin, this someone else was a McDonald’s All-American in high school. She starred in college as a standout for the University of Missouri, earning all SEC honors. And she’s been on the radar and a key player in the WNBA for several years.
Meet Sophie Cunningham.
You may not have heard of her until now but over the next several months you’ll be hearing more. What a basketball player. What talent. What charisma. Really knows the game.
This just goes to show us all that life keeps turning in different directions. Until this very second we’ll all been assuming Caitlin will be the star of her team in this her second WNBA season but I’m breaking the news right now that a new narrative is now unfolding that Sophie will be THE STORY of the WNBA season.
Isn’t it wild the way life surprises and entertains us, throws us off, keeps delivering the unexpected?
I can hear you saying, “No way, this is just Sportface chasing clicks.”
I do chase clicks.
But I also am responsible – along with Idea Man – for making sure you get the most forward-looking insights available anywhere on the Internet. This Sophie Cunningham story is coming at all of us like ChatGPT 5.0.
The speed, the momentum, the coordination – it’s all there. Watch Sophie become THE FACE of the Indiana Fever. Watch her play hoops.
The looming question throughout this season’s soap opera will be “How does Caitlin Clark, so used to being the center of attention, deal with Sophie rising above her in popularity? Will she become jealous? Will this create a rift on the team? Will things get petty?
Let’s hope for all of that.
