"You're literally dumb as f–k" - Sophie Cunningham has a message for people who argue that Caitlin is not the WNBA's face
"You're literally dumb as f–k" - Sophie Cunningham has a message for people who argue that Caitlin is not the WNBA's face originally appeared on Basketball Network. Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark is arguably the most popular player in the WNBA today. However, there are certain people who don't buy the "Caitlin Fever" and don't think that the former Iowa standout is the face of the league. Well, Clark's Fever teammate Sophie Cunningham has an NSFW message for them. During the first episode of her "Show Me Something" podcast with West Wilson, Sophie admitted that she is annoyed with people who don't think Caitlin is the WNBA's new face. "It literally like pisses me off when people are like, 'She's not the face of the league,'" Cunningham stated. "What? No, there's really good, well-known people in our league. I'm not discrediting them; we have a lot of bad as—s in our league, like hell yeah to that — I'm all for that. But when people try to argue she's not the face of our league or our league would be where we're at without her, you're dumb as s–t. You're literally dumb as f—k." The WNBA posted record figures in 2024 The WNBA looked like a dying league before Caitlin arrived via the 2024 Draft. Since then, the league's numbers have surged. According to an official press release, the WNBA's 2024 season finished with its best attendance numbers in 22 years while setting the record for digital consumption and merchandise sales. Clark's debut on May 14, 2024, versus the Connecticut Sun was the most watched WNBA game since 2001. Four months later, the Fever's September 19th game at the Capital One Arena versus the Washington Mystics set the WNBA single-game attendance record with 20,711. To prove these two games weren't just flukes, Indiana's total home attendance of 340,715 was also a single-season record for a WNBA team. Meanwhile, overall WNBA attendance improved by 48 percent compared to the previous campaign. The Fever saw its franchise value increase by 273 percent compared to the previous year, the biggest improvement in the WNBA last year. With a value of $335 million, Indiana ranks third overall in the league, behind only big markets such as Golden State ($500 million) and New York ($420 million).The Caitlin effect could hit $1 billion After the historic 2024 campaign, the Indianapolis Star hired valuation expert Ryan Brewer from Indiana University Columbus to study Caitlin's economic impact on the league last year. He concluded that Clark was single-handedly responsible for 26.5 percent of the WNBA's 2024 economy. He also projected that the "Caitlin Effect" could hit a billion dollars this year. "If things just go as they were, and we have an expanded season of 22 home games with modest inflation, I'm looking at $875 million," Brewer told NBC News. "And I could easily see that eclipsing a billion dollars on the economic impact of Caitlin Clark this year." A survey conducted by media outlet "The Athletic" recently revealed that 53.8 percent of WNBA players agree that Clark will be the face of the league five years from now. However, there are still players who oppose that, even if the numbers don't lie. But as Sophie said, those people are just in story was originally reported by Basketball Network on Jul 31, 2025, where it first appeared.

Sophie Cunningham calls Caitlin Clark haters ‘dumb as f–k' for saying she's not the face of WNBA
Sophie Cunningham is already firing shots on her new podcast. Cunningham, speaking Wednesday on 'Show Me Something,' didn't mince words when discussing many fans' discrediting of her Indiana Fever co-star Caitlin Clark. 'It pisses me off when people are like, '[Clark's] not the face of the league,'' Cunningham said with a baffled look on her face. 'When people try to argue that she's not the face of our league or that our league would be where we're at without her — you're dumb as s–t, you're literally dumb as f–k.' 4 Sophie Cunningham takes issue with people discrediting Caitlin Clark as the face of the WNBA. "Show Me Something" podcast The 28-year-old's comments come in just the first episode of her new podcast, which she describes as 'unfiltered.' She surely backed that up by calling out Clark haters on day one — with no filter. Clark has, of course, taken the world by storm in the past several years, being credited by many for the meteoric rise of the WNBA and women's basketball. 4 Cunningham and Clark have made for a good duo for the Fever. NBAE via Getty Images Cunningham noted that there are other 'really good' and 'badass' players in the league, but she scoffed at the idea of not hailing Clark as the face of the league. Cunningham broke the internet in June for tossing Connecticut Sun guard Jacy Sheldon to the ground at the end of a tense game after Sheldon poked Clark in the eye earlier in the contest. 4 Sophie Cunningham fouls Jacy Sheldon during the Fever's June 17 game against the Sun. Screengrab via X/@HeavensFX Cunningham also spoke about this incident, noting how players around the league have gone overboard in trying to 'toughen up' Clark and 'show her what the [WNBA] really is.' 'It's too much, I'm over it,' she said. 'Why bully a person who has a huge role in growing your sport?' Cunningham's co-host, Bravo star West Wilson, asked. 4 Cunningham and Clark cheer on the Fever from the bench in June. AP Cunningham sees Clark's WNBA impact firsthand, and it appears she'll have no issue filling the world in on this in the new podcast that launched Wednesday through Colin Cowherd's media company, 'The Volume.' Cunningham will work on it with Wilson, a longtime friend from their hometown of Columbia, Missouri.
