The Indiana Fever players became instant hits for their extraordinary 2025 season. Those on the floor deserved the credit for their game play, but those on the bench for a long time, due to injuries, also stole the show and earned a nickname ‘Bench mob’. The leaders of this mob were Sophie Cunningham and Caitlin Clark, who supported the team throughout the season with regular appearances on the sidelines.
The offseason separated their paths, as CC went back to her community work and rehab, while the forward took her talents behind the mic. Fans still showed love for the duo. From her podcast to her appearance on the Good Morning America show, followers lauded the former Mercury star’s presence in front of the camera. Even though the real reason behind Cunningham’s Good Morning America feature was different, fans were least bothered about it.
