That looked painful.
Sophie Cunningham wasn't thrilled.
On a defensive possession Tuesday night vs. the Connecticut Sun, Cunningham took a crushing screen that included an elbow to her head.
Connecticut thought the Indiana Fever forward embellished the contact.
Clearly, Cunningham did not.
She posted on X about it after the game:
they said I flopped. el oh el. https://t.co/EV3W5LKkRK

It wasn't a perfect night for the Fever. Caitlin Clark got hurt late in the game.
But Indiana did come away with the 85-77 win.
Cunningham scored 11 points with three rebounds and three steals off the bench. She shot 4-for-6 from the floor and made 2-for-3 from 3.
And at least she got up and was just fine after what definitely wasn't a flop.
