Sophie Cunningham addresses perception that she is the 'sex symbol' of the WNBA

The usual suspects say that Sophie Cunningham , a role player, is more popular than some of the WNBA’s best players because of "white privilege." But that is not true.

Since Caitlin Clark’s rookie season, several WNBA players have used the increased spotlight to exhibit bratty behavior, entitlement, and racial hysteria.

By contrast, Cunningham has embraced the moment.

She’s entertaining, humorous, resilient, and gorgeous.

Colin Cowherd interviewed Cunningham this week on his Volume podcast network, of which she is a part, and noticed a difference between her and the many other athletes he has interviewed.

MINA KIMES THINKS PERCEPTION OF DIANNA RUSSINI-MIKE VRABEL SCANDAL IS UNFAIR TO WOMEN "Just did a pod w @sophaller Never had a pod with an athlete that was this honest and authentic.

Totally refreshing.

I’ll release it tonight," Cowherd posted on X.

Cunningham is real.

She’s likable.

She also doesn’t cave to the pressure from the vultures of American culture who have determined that attractive white women should be ashamed of their looks.

She’s like Sydney Sweeney in that way.

"You are kind of viewed as the leagues…ummm," Cowherd hesitated.

"Just say it," Cunningham interrupted.
