Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham shared the perfect message on her Instagram story after getting ejected in Tuesday’s heated contest against the Connecticut Sun.
Tensions boiled over in Tuesday’s contest between the two clubs, featuring a couple of heated altercations between Caitlin Clark and Jacy Sheldon, multiple technical fouls and three ejections.
Sheldon, Connecticut teammate Lindsay Allen and Sophie Cunningham were all ejected during Tuesday night’s tense affair. It appears that Cunningham had enough of Sheldon’s antics toward Clark, as evidenced by the foul she committed before being ejected:
