Sports Illustrated edits Sophie Cunningham 'karma' headline after creating social media firestorm
The hard foul that left Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham with a bloody mouth against the Chicago Sky was a result of karma. At least, that was Sports Illustrated's initial reaction to Chicago's DiJonai Carrington clotheslining Cunningham during a layup attempt.
With two minutes remaining in the first quarter of the Fever's eventual 90-86 win on Saturday night, Carrington delivered a very hard foul on Cunningham underneath the basket. The foul was upgraded to a Flagrant 2, resulting in Carrington's ejection from the contest.
