Sophie Cunningham was the center of controversy over comments about the WNBA’s expansion to Cleveland, Detroit and Philadelphia, and, on Thursday, she attempted to clarify her message ahead of the Fever’s win over the Aces.

Following the WNBA's announcement that it was moving to Cleveland in 2028, Detroit in 2029 and Philadelphia in 2030, Cunningham didn't hold back her candid opinion of the news. As Yahoo Sports revealed, the Fever guard admitted she would have preferred somewhere like Miami, Nashville or Kansas City.

The cities of Cleveland and Detroit have pushed back at Sophie Cunningham after the Fever guard questioned the WNBA's plan to expand into those cities.
