Sophie Cunningham Posted The Perfect Instagram Message After Getting Ejected For Fighting & Defending Caitlin Clark During Fever-Sun Game

Sophie Cunningham recently shared an important message following her ejection from a game. Here’s a summary of her key points:

WNBA star Sophie Cunningham had a simple message for everyone after getting ejected on Tuesday evening.

The Indiana Fever guard came to Caitlin Clark’s defense against the Connecticut Sun on Tuesday night. Late in the third quarter, Clark was poked in the eye and knocked to the ground by multiple members of the Sun. Later in the fourth quarter, Cunningham took Jacy Sheldon – the Sun guard who hit Clark in the eye – to the ground with a hard foul.

Cunningham, who is in her first year with the Indiana Fever, ended up getting tossed from the game.

Fever head coach Stephanie White is not happy with the referees.

“Everybody’s getting better, except the officials,” White said during a multi-minute rant that ripped the referees from Tuesday night’s game.

White thinks that the WNBA’s officials have been letting too much go all season long.

“I think that it was pretty obvious that stuff was brewing when officials don’t get control of the ball game, when they allow that stuff to happen,” White said. “And it’s been happening all season long. It’s not just this game, it’s been happening all season long.

“When you allow them to play physical and you allow these things to happen, they’re gonna compete,” White continued. “And they’re gonna have their teammates’ backs. It’s exactly what you expect out of fierce competition. I started talking to the officials in the first quarter, and we knew this was gonna happen. You could tell it was gonna happen. They gotta get control of it, they gotta be better.”
