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

Sophie came across one of the posts claiming the point guard was giving her the eye and shared it with a caption asking Caitlin to “fix your face.”

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.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.

From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
