Summary
Sophie Cunningham, a 29-year-old WNBA guard with career averages of 7.9 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 1.2 assists per game, is reportedly shopping a “tell-all” book. Cunningham’s most notable career accolade was being a three-time first-team All-SEC player during her time at the University of Missouri. Her recent comments on transgender athletes have sparked debate, and it’s likely the book would focus on her personality rather than her profession.

This is just another example of how athletes can cash in on their 15 minutes of fame. The book deal is a calculated move to stay relevant and profitable. The real question is, who’s advising her on this move?
