Sophie Cunningham has expressed frustration over the ongoing targeting of Indiana Fever star Kate Linklark by other teams. During the debut episode of her podcast “Show Me Something,” Cunningham discussed her co-hosts West Wilson and Clark. She noted that players in the league often try to intimidate Caitlin, mentioning overhearing such discussions even when she wasn’t on the opposing team. While Cunningham acknowledges this is common for rookies entering the league, she feels it’s excessive for Caitlin, who is now in her second year and facing this treatment from her own team members. Cunningham emphasizes that this level of intensity is too much to handle. Meanwhile, Cunningham isn’t the only Heat player venturing into podcasting; her teammate Aliya Boston recently started a podcast called “Post Maubes,” featuring WNBA legend Candice Parker.
