Sophie Cunningham and Caitlin Clark have quickly formed a friendship following their teaming up this season.
Cunningham joined Clark on the Indiana Fever in the offseason, with the team acquiring her in a trade from the Phoenix Mercury. She’s wasted getting to know her new teammate, and fans probably wouldn’t be faulted for assuming they’re already besties.
Curiously enough, some fans have even suggested that they might be more than friends because of a viral video in which Clark seems to be treating Cunningham like eye candy.
Of course, both women are straight. Caitlin has been dating Connor McCaffery for over two years, while Sophie, though single, seems to be looking forward to her next relationship… with a man, based on her social media posts.
None of the above stopped the internet from suggesting that the teammates might be intimately involved.
Sophie Cunningham Fans The Flames

Some took the message to mean that Cunningham was telling Clark to forget about any possibility of a fling, while others took it to mean that the former Mercury star was upset at her teammate for exposing their secret.
Of course, both of these theories are reaches.
Cunningham was either poking fun at Clark over the video or purposely trolling everyone else.
Meanwhile, both players are out injured. Clark has been out with a quadriceps strain and will be unavailable for selection until at least June 9.
Cunningham suffered an ankle injury against the Connecticut Sun on Friday and is day-to-day.
