Sophie Cunningham rocks ‘Tres Leches' shirt in support of Caitlin Clark, Lexie Hull
The post Sophie Cunningham rocks 'Tres Leches' shirt in support of Caitlin Clark, Lexie Hull appeared first on ClutchPoints. There's a new big three in the WNBA and they reside in Indianapolis as Indiana Fever guards Caitlin Clark, Lexie Hull, and Sophie Cunningham have been in the news quite a bit recently. After their recent scuffles against the Connecticut Sun, the trio has only grown closer and fans all around the world are buying into their bond. Advertisement In true tunnel fit fashion, Sophie Cunningham rocked a custom t-shirt with their new nickname plastered on the front. Tres Leches (Spanish for 'three milks') is a common Latin American dessert consisting of condensed, evaporated, and whole milks to form its absorbent cake. Fans have been both shocked and pleased with the recent nickname and Cunningham wearing the shirt before Indiana's matchup with the Las Vegas Aces. Nevertheless, it's a perfect way to capture the moment and what could be a blossoming core of talented players within the WNBA. Indiana's new 'Big 3' Players like Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell have certainly been more productive throughout this season in terms of scoring, but perhaps this recent surge surround the Fever could be what they need to wake up from a pedestrian 6-7 start. It could serve as a rallying point for the entire team in not taking this season for granted and making their push towards another playoffs appearance. Advertisement Still, this team will only go as far as Boston and Caitlin Clark will take them in terms of their scoring. Both players are two of the league's best in terms of creating their own shots, but they'll need the support of the rest of the team if they want to catch heat at this point of the season. The Fever dropped their last game 89-81 against the Aces with another upcoming road game against the Seattle Storm.

Sophie Cunningham's Outfit Makes Statement on Sunday
Sophie Cunningham's Outfit Makes Statement on Sunday originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Sophie Cunningham has a new nickname with her Indiana Fever teammates, and it's not "The Enforcer." Cunningham, 28, has been experiencing a huge boost in popularity on the heels of her actions against the Connecticut Sun on Tuesday. Advertisement After retaliating against Sun guard Jacy Shelton, who got a flagrant foul for poking Caitlin Clark in the eye earlier in the game, Cunningham's social media following exploded. She gained over 1 million followers on TikTok, where the WNBA veteran often flexes her gameday outfits. Her wardrobe on Sunday when she arrived for the Fever's road game against the Las Vegas Aces proved that she has been reading all the comments online. Indiana Fever guard Lexie Hull (10), Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark (22), and Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham (8) laugh near the team Smith/IndyStar / USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images Cunningham, Clark and Indiana guard Lexie Hull formed a strong bond as soon as Cunningham arrived from the Phoenix Mercury in the offseason, commenting on each other's social media posts and standing up for one another on the court as well. Advertisement Fans online started the nickname "Tres Leches" to refer to the Fever trio, and Cunningham made quite the statement by acknowledging the name for her teammate trio with a custom tee in Las Vegas. Based on the evidence since the internet rallied behind Cunningham for defending Clark on Tuesday, the shirts may sell out quickly. The Indiana Fever team store sold out of Cunningham jerseys by Wednesday morning and had to be temporarily shut down due to the unprecedented volume of orders. With the hole in the market, her alma mater, Missouri, even stepped in to help fill the demand by releasing a Sophie Cunningham "legacy collection." Advertisement The players understand how to leverage their marketing power. Cunningham followed her entrance by sharing a prepared statement to the WNBA about the upcoming collective bargaining negotiations before the game. "This is a defining moment in the WNBA," she said. "As the league grows, it's time for the CBA that reflects our true value. We are fighting for a fair share of business that we built, because it is a business. We are not fighting for anything that is unreasonable."

Sophie Cunningham shows her love for Caitlin Clark with personalized arrival outfit... hours after slamming refs
Sophie Cunningham continued to back Caitlin Clark as she arrived for the Indiana Fever's clash against the Las Vegas Aces - this time with her outfit choices. The 28-year-old was thrust into the spotlight this week after she avenged her Fever teammate by tackling Connecticut Sun star Jacy Sheldon to the court on Tuesday night. Five days later, and the Fever are back in action in Sin City, where Cunningham proved yet again whose side she's on. The 6-foot-1 basketball star opted to give a nod to Clark following the contentious week of controversy, arriving at T-Mobile Area in a baggy white 'Tres Leches' t-shirt. The shirt, sold by Barstool Sports, is a nod to Cunningham, Clark and teammate Lexie Hull and the moniker their trio has earned. Cunningham arrived in Indiana during the offseason after being traded by the Phoenix Mercury and appeared to immediately bond with Clark and Hull, cementing their posse. Fans picked up on their friendship and began dubbing them the 'Tres Leches,' which means the Three Milks. Cunningham's outfit choice comes just hours after she hit out at the WNBA referees in an attempt to justify her actions during Tuesday's clash against the Sun. 'I'm not focused on the extracurricular activities,' Cunningham said at practice on Saturday. 'And you know what, during that, it was just part of the game. I think the refs had a lot to do with that. 'It was a buildup for a couple of years now of them just not protecting the star player of the WNBA. And so at the end of the day, I'm going to protect my teammates. That's what I do. And I'm a team player, so it's all good.' Fever coach Stephanie White echoed that sentiment, saying the refs lacked 'control' of the game and that 'we knew this was gonna happen' in the first quarter. Clark was prodded in the eye by Connecticut's Sheldon, who had previously been caught in a heated exchange with the Fever guard, before being slammed to the floor by Marina Mabrey in a violent moment that sparked outrage. Mabrey escaped with a mere technical, while Sheldon was handed a flagrant 1. But Cunningham wasn't letting it slide. With 46.1 seconds remaining in the game, Cunningham wrapped her arms around Sun guard Sheldon's head and pulled her to the ground in an act of revenge after her foul on Clark. Footage that emerged after the game showed that Cunningham also tried to get involved in the initial scuffle involving Clark. In the video, Cunningham - who was out of the game at the time - could be seen briefly trying to run towards the fracas before being intercepted by assistant coach Austin Kelly. Kelly then held onto Cunningham for several seconds before the incident died down. Cunningham received a fine from the league after the game, while Mabrey's technical foul (assessed for her shove on Clark) was also upgraded to a flagrant two foul, which came with a corresponding fine for such an infraction. The tension between Clark and Sheldon had been building from earlier in the game, as the pair found themselves in a feisty exchange, with the Fever star firing off a volatile message after Sheldon appeared to say: 'You can't do that.' 'I can do whatever the f*** I want to do,' Clark said to Sheldon before shoving her away. Mabrey also stepped in to give a little shove to Clark, though things didn't escalate further in that situation.
