Following Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham's controversial comments, the WNBA now finds itself in an awkward position. That has led to a mixed reaction and has even opened the WNBA up to former NBA players trying to join their league. WNBA is forced to confront Sophie Cunningham's comments head-onWhether you agree with Cunningham's take or not, it seems that the WNBA has done a horrible job responding to criticisms surrounding its players. In fact, had it not been for NBA commissioner Adam Silver recommending it, WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert wouldn't have suspended Chennedy Carter. Now Engelbert is again late responding to the fallout surrounding Cunningham's comments by having a league meeting about who is eligible to actually play in the WNBA.
