Sophie Cunninghamās $400 foul just turned into a million-dollar moment. š°
After her now-viral flagrant foul on Caitlin Clark, the sixth-year WNBA vet has exploded in popularity, on and off the court.
In just a matter of days:
š Over 1M followers on TikTok
š 840K on Instagram (up 244K+ in a week)
š Her jersey? Sold out until July 8
Dubbed āThe Enforcerā by fans online, Cunninghamās tough, unapologetic play didnāt just fire up the Fever, it fired up the internet.
And hereās the twist, instead of backlash, sheās been embraced, even by Caitlin Clarkās massive fanbase.
Many saw her as someone who stood her ground, defended her team, and brought the kind of edge the league hasnāt seen in years.
That moment of grit? It turned into love, followers, and a real business.
Sophie Cunningham, who once charged $10,000 per sponsored post, is now looking at rates three times that, with brands like Adidas and Quest Nutrition already in the fold, and more knocking.
āThis is unprecedented growth,ā said her agent, Addison Abdo of PRP Agency.
She got fined $400⦠and gained everything else.
In a league driven by stars and moments, Sophie Cunningham just became both. šš
