The WNBA fined Sophie Cunningham again after the Indiana Fever star criticized referees on her podcast for giving Dallas Wings' Paige Bueckers too many whistles.

In the second quarter, Sophie Cunningham was forced to exit the game when Sun player Bria Hartley fell awkwardly into her. Cunningham was standing under the basket playing defense while driving, Sun guard Bria Hartley fell into her lower left leg after making a pass.

Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham called "bulls--t" on the idea that the team or WNBA is being purposefully deceptive over the injury to star Caitlin Clark.

Sophie Cunningham was helped off the court in the second quarter of Indiana’s game against the Connecticut Sun after Bria Hartley fell into her leg. Cunningham was in visible pain as she clutched her knee before she was helped off the court and to the locker room. The Fever quickly announced she would return to the game.

Sun player Bria Hartley is facing backlash after she smiled while watching Sophie Cunningham scream in pain from her injury.

"Ironically, Marina Mabry and Tina Charles, the 2 that attacked CC, were indeed the first on the scene to shield Sophie, then handed the towel shield over to AB. Maybe with Jacy off the team, the rivalry dies," a second person added.

The Indiana Fever erased a 21-point deficit and picked up a much-needed win to keep pace in the playoffs race.
