Indiana Fever's Sophie Cunningham, Caitlin Clark's reported BFF, took to X to address the issue of sex toys being thrown on basketball courts.

What does the video show? The clip shows a green item being thrown on court during the game. When the referee goes to check it, one can see it is a sex toy, particularly a dildo.

During the Chicago vs Indiana game, Cunningham also seemingly lost her balance and fell on a cameraman who was sitting courtside. Videos of the fall began to circulate online with the caption saying 'Cunningham sat on the cameraman's face'. In the clip, Cunningham can be seen trying to throw the ball, while running backwards, and the momentum makes her lose her balance, so she almost sits on what appears to be a cameraman's face on the side of the court. However, the Fever player who is Caitlin Clark's reported BFF, immediately realizes the situation and picks herself up to continue the game.
