Sophie Cunningham calls out the WNBA's refereeing

Sophie Cuinningham has been outspoken when it comes to expressing her opinions about the league. After the Fever's 81-80 loss to the Dallas Wings on Tuesday, the guard called out the league's officiating.

Cunningham shared her take on Wednesday's episode of her podcast. She criticized the officials for giving calls in favor of Wings rookie Paige Bueckers.

"Those refs were giving her every freaking whistle last night. Like you literally couldn't touch her and that sh*t is so annoying," Cunningham said (19:51), via "Show Me Something."

It was not the first time Cunningham criticized the league's refereeing system. She was previously fined for making TikToks dissing the officials and their decisions. However, the fines did not stop her from speaking her mind.
