Summary
This week on Show Me Something, Sophie Cunningham and West Wilson somehow turn a conversation about the weather into a full-blown deep dive on WNBA roster cuts, fighting hippos, aliens in the ocean, and why the ’90s may have been the greatest era ever.
Sophie gives a real behind-the-scenes look at Indiana Fever training camp just DAYS before the home opener — from brutal defensive practices and looming roster cuts to the emotional reality of being traded in the WNBA. She opens up about leaving the Phoenix Mercury, taking career risks, and why growth sometimes means getting uncomfortable.
