The Fever came away with the win, but the on-field action has not really been the main topic of discussion in the days since. Instead, a lot of it has centred around Sophie Cunningham being the only player to put her hand on her heart as the national anthem was playing.
In the clip which has been shared by multiple accounts on X/Twitter, Cunningham is standing slightly away from the rest of her teammates, none of whom have their hands raised.
Meanwhile, the Atlanta Dream squad are not believed to have taken to the court while the anthem was ongoing.

One fan asked: “Why is the other team not on the court? What is wrong with the WNBA??”
God Bless her. No excuse for the others. Disgusting,” added another.
A fourth commented: “Sophie stood alone with hand on heart. That quiet move speaks loud.”
Another suggested: “Totally disrespectful. Let them go live over in Europe or anywhere else and let’s see how they feel then.”
“She’s Americas Sweetheart!! We stand behind you,” added a sixth while tagging Cunningham on X.
I’m impressed by her. Good for Sophie.
WNBA is a joke, with a few people with character
How does this bunch of Haters stay in business?; oh, thats right ,they are subsidized by the NBA otherwise haters go back to the ghetto and become ‘baby mamas’ ,still subsidized.

If I was young, single, RICH, and good-looking, I would reach out to her agent for a meeting.
And her teammate?
And ... Caitlyn Clark .. where was her priorities during the anthem?
I know nothing about sports, but pay some attention to this one issue.
The way I see it it:
Caitlin was the “sweetheart” at first.
Sophie stood up for Caitlin against the mean-girl thugs, and for no trans in the league.
Caitlin turned on Sophie to go with the flow of pro-trans.
Now Sophie is the one getting positive attention, and Caitlin is on the back burner.
Is this correct?
Caitlyn Clark has probably been beaten down so much she is now a compliant WNBA wokester.
Can you share the link of the vendor, please?
As I mentioned in the X comments, she’s probably been bullied so many times, they finally broke her and now she’s a slave to the WNBA wokesters.
exactly. Hearing Caitlyn Clark recently standing up for trans rights. She is now “one of them”
