I’m damn proud of Sophie Cunningham. Standing for the National Anthem with her hand over her heart shouldn’t take courage in America, but apparently it does.
Seeing Sophie reportedly stand alone among her Fever teammates doing it was powerful. And yes, I was disappointed to see Caitlin Clark standing beside her without doing the same.
That flag represents people who sacrificed everything so we could stand there freely.
Sophie showed respect. I wish the rest of the team had joined her.
