Caitlin Clark Gets AVENGED By SAVAGE Teammate! Baller Lives Matter!
What was said
"They are they're definitely targeting her and and the league and the refs do nothing to protect her. Like even the people they put on the commercials, like they they could if they're really trying to make money, they are going to put people out there that first of all people want to see that people are going to bring attention to and they just don't they just don't."
Phoenix Mercury player Sophie Cunningham publicly criticized the WNBA for failing to protect star player Caitlin Clark from repeated physical targeting by opponents, including a throat punch that resulted in only a one-game suspension. Cunningham also revealed that the league excluded Clark from a 30-year commemorative poster despite her being a generational talent driving unprecedented viewership and revenue. She accused the league of inexplicably refusing to market its biggest stars effectively.
