Caitlin Clark & Sophie Cunningham Let the Scoreboard Do the Talking Against Brittney Griner
No trash talk. No stares. Just clinical execution.
The Indiana Fever defeated the Phoenix Mercury 91–78, but the real message? Silence.
Earlier this season, Brittney Griner dismissed the physicality Clark faced: “It’s the pros.” Later, she backed Clark’s Olympic snub. But on this night, Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham remembered everything—and responded not with words, but with precision.
Clark dropped 23 points, 9 assists, and zero turnovers. Cunningham added 18 points and five threes. No celebration. No antics. Just buckets.
“We remember everything. But we’re focused on winning,” Clark said postgame.
Cameras caught Griner quietly shaking her head late in the game. She had 17 points, but it wasn’t enough to stop the Fever’s rhythm.
Social media exploded with hashtags like #ClarkAndCunningham and #NoWordsJustBuckets. One viral post summed it up:
“No chirping. Just cooking.”
This wasn’t just a win. It was a shift in WNBA power—led by a rookie and her enforcer-turned-closer.
And in the end, they didn’t need to talk.
They let the scoreboard speak.
