Sophie Cunningham has seen enough. The Indiana Fever guard watched fans turn WNBA games into adult toy throwing contests and she’s done playing nice.
For the third time in just a few days, someone threw a dildo onto the court mid-game. The latest incidents happened at Wintrust Arena on Friday night during the game between Chicago Sky and Golden State Valkyries. Another landed during an Atlanta Dream vs. Phoenix Mercury game. One poor security guard picked it up bare-handed and tucked it into his shirt.
Yes, all together, there were three WNBA games, three airborne dildos, and zero sense left in the crowd.
Sophie Cunningham Speaks Up, Internet Loses It

After the latest incident, Cunningham took to X and didn’t mince words.
“Stop throwing dildos on the court… you’re going to hurt one of us,” she wrote.
Short. Direct. Completely fair. But, of course, fans on the internet did what fans do, turn it into comedy.
One user replied, “It’s up to the league and the players to navigate this. Balls in your court.”
Another said on Cunningham’s post, “Imagine how funny it would be if it becomes a trend.”
One user took it even further: “This may actually help with viewership! Betting odds on how many dildos hit the floor per game. I would watch this!”
And then came the guy who claimed, “Throwing s3x t0ys is protected by the First Amendment. If you hate America and the Constitution, I recommend leaving.”
Yeah. That’s the kind of logic we’re dealing with.
Even the bootleg merch economy is apparently getting ideas: “They’re gonna start selling them outside the stadium like the bootleg merch and alcohol vendors,” someone wrote.
While some are clearly having a laugh, Cunningham’s warning is no joke. With players running through the court, anything on the floor becomes a serious safety hazard.
So far, the league hasn’t issued an official statement. But given how quickly this trend is gaining viral, they might have to, before things get even weirder.
Brittney Griner Finally Breaks Her Silence Over Alleged Caitlin Clark Comments That The WNBA Refused To Investigate

WNBA star Brittney Griner was at the center of a new debate over what she allegedly said in a game against basketball phenom Caitlin Clark.
The Atlanta Dream center found herself at the center of social media controversy last month when some fans thought she disparaged Indiana Fever star guard Caitlin Clark upon fouling out.
The game’s broadcast focused on an upset Griner saying something as she returned to the Dream bench after fouling out of the game. While there’s no audio of this moment, some who tried to read Griner’s lips thought she called Clark a “trash f–king white girl.”
However, there’s no proof of Griner saying those actual words since others thought she stated something else.
It took weeks for someone to finally get a quote from her, and she provided much of nothing.
Brittney Griner was asked about this moment before her team’s June 15 game against the Washington Mystics and said, “I remember fouling out, being mad. I remember fouling out on, I believe it was [Natasha] Howard driving to the basket. They said I put my hand in.”

WNBA Chooses Not To Investigate Brittney Griner

Moments before the conclusion of the Indiana Fever’s 81-76 victory over the Dream at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta weeks ago, cameras seemingly caught Atlanta Dream star center Brittney Griner labeling Caitlin Clark “trash” before calling her a “f***ing white girl” in frustration over a foul on Natasha Howard.
The clip of Griner speaking on the bench, lacking context, spread on social media and went viral.
Griner, who won a gold medal for Team USA at the Summer Olympics in Paris in 2024, essentially got aw@y with whatever came out of her mouth because the league basically ignored the controversy.
This incident is not the only time Griner vocalized her frustrations this season. Following another game, she stormed off mid-interview, yelling at the referees to “be f—ing better.
