Sophie Cunningham Had Surprisingly Cold Reaction To Teammates Caitlin Clark & Aliyah Boston Winning Gold For USA [VIDEO]
Cunningham had other things going.
Sophie Cunningham did not watch her teammates win gold. A reporter asked anyway.
BrickCenter posted the video Tuesday. A reporter asked, “Did you watch Caitlin and Aliyah yesterday?” Cunningham said, “No, I was busy.”
The follow-up was simple. “They got it done.” Her answer was shorter. “Good, congrats.”

Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston helped the United States beat France 97-79 on Sunday in Berlin. It was Team USA’s fifth straight FIBA Women’s World Cup title. Clark scored 12 points off the bench in 13 minutes. Boston went 3-for-3. The Fever celebrated both as world champions.
Cunningham stayed home during the break. She turned 30 and posted lake photos. The tone in the interview still landed like a shrug

Cunningham spent months as Clark’s on-court bodyguard in public. She pointed at DeWanna Bonner for 22 seconds and said opponents were targeting Clark while refs did nothing. The gold-medal answer sounded like a different teammate.
Clark has already been short with media on other Team USA topics. She snapped at a reporter who dragged Angel Reese into a question. A bench clip with Reese from the Hungary quarterfinal also went everywhere. Another Team USA video kept the same names in the timeline.
Sophie Cunningham Still Has To Share A Locker Room

Indiana returns to work this week. The Fever have four regular-season games left with Toronto first. Seeding is still live. Clark, Boston and coach Stephanie White come back with medals. Cunningham comes back with a sound bite.
Nothing in the clip is a direct shot at Clark. She said congrats, but did not smile through it. That gap is what people are clipping. “Good, congrats” can be polite. This week, it reads thin.
Cunningham has built a brand on saying the quiet part. This time the quiet part was that she missed the final.
