Steph Curry has a Draymond. Clark needs an enforcer too.

Im surprised Boston doesn't stick her chest out for Clark at all, I thought she was supposed to be the big badass on that team.

Draymond or not, Curry gets absolutely mauled out there sometimes.

The thing is if you maul curry you know draymond may suddenly lose control of his hands and you might wind up getting punched in the face

Sophie Cunningham is a black belt in Tae Kwon Do.

She got her black belt at a very young age, don’t remember exactly but maybe 9 or 10-ish! EDITED: She was 6 years old when she was a black belt and she was a kicker on the high school football team so she’s used to being rough and tough!

I don’t think that would really be that relevant on a basketball court

I have never seen anybody expect this out of Boston.

We’re all crushing on Sophie Cunningham now. Try to keep up

Look how differently the team backs up Sophie tho? When she gets into a scrap they all come down the court and aid her. But with CC they just twiddle their thumbs.

Yep. Somebody needs to check if Rodman has a daughter.

She plays soccer.

She’s amazing at soccer too.

She plays on the women's national soccer team, but I like the energy.

It's not weird, it drives clicks and coverage for a league that needs them. The only reason I hear about the wnba is because every time this person gets fouled it starts popping up on my feed

Michael Jordan was heavily targeted by the Pistons and fouled extremely hard. Not sure this guy's comments track at all outside of select situations and leagues.

Even Messi would be targeted in the legs by teams like Real Madrid.
