But during a rapid-fire interview with Front Office Sports, the Indiana Fever guard delivered one of her most viral comments yet. When asked who she would never want running her social media accounts, Cunningham immediately pointed to her teammate, Caitlin Clark. The answer came with zero hesitation and a lot of humor, giving fans another glimpse into the team\u2019s off-court chemistry.Cunningham did not hold back when explaining why Clark would be her last choice. \u201cOh, 1000% Caitlin Clark,\u201d she said. \u201cShe is a shit starter. She would definitely start some stuff over there.\u201d Her blunt response quickly caught attention online. Cunningham and Clark played together last season, but both suffered season-ending injuries, keeping them out of the Indiana Fever\u2019s playoff run. While Clark battles back from a groin injury, Cunningham entered free agency after an MCL tear ended her WNBA season.<\/p>\n

Cunningham appeared in 30 games before tearing her MCL, averaging 8.6 points, 3.5 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 1.0 steals.

In an episode of her \u201cShow Me Something\u201d podcast last August, she addressed the criticism and jealousy directed at Clark, saying, \u201cIt literally pisses me off when people are like, \u2018She\u2019s not the face of the league.\u2019 What?\u201dShe continued, praising other WNBA stars but insisting Clark\u2019s impact is undeniable, \u201cBut when people try to argue that she\u2019s not the face of our league or our league would be where we\u2019re at without her, you\u2019re dumb as st. You\u2019re literally dumb as fk.\u201dCaitlin Clark remains central to the WNBA\u2019s rise in popularity, and with a new CBA looming in 2026, her influence will only continue to shape the league\u2019s future.
