Tuesday night, two of the most talked-about players, Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham, and their Indiana Fever took on the Seattle Storm. Fans were crowded outside Climate Pledge Arena in support of Cunningham because of her anti-transgender sports ideologies. “Neither our organization nor Sophie had any knowledge of this demonstration and no contact with its organizers,” the statement said. “Seattle and this organization and Climate Pledge, we always want to be an area where people feel welcome coming into this building,” Raman said. Cunningham sparked the firestorm last week during an ESPN interview when she claimed she doesn’t hate trans women and wants to preserve women’s sports by protecting “young girls in a locker room, or young girls in sport who shouldn’t have to go against biological men.”
