Whether it be between two different eras, players, teams or even WNBA and NBA players.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During an NBA broadcast, Indiana Pacers legend Reggie Miller compared Fever star Caitlin Clark to Payton Pritchard. He said that he likened Pritchard\u2019s ball handling and ability to make big shots to Clark\u2019s abilities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"margin: 0px; padding: 0px;\">This was met by Clark\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.chicitysports.com\/wnba-nba-legend-carmelo-anthony-addresses-caitlin-clark-incident\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">almost poker face look<\/a>, signifying that she may not have agreed with Miller\u2019s comparison.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most recently, Cunningham was interviewed by SiriusXM Sports. The 6-foot-1 guard shared her own NBA comparison.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAfter that whole Caitlin Clark is Payton Pritchard comparison, who is Sophie Cunningham\u2019s NBA comparison?\u201d they asked.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cSo, if you\u2019re asking Reggie Miller, I don\u2019t know what he would say what my NBA comparison would be,\u201d Cunningham jokingly referenced Miller\u2019s comments about Clark\u2019s NBA counterpart.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBut, I feel like I get, like, a lot of Grayson Allen quite a bit,\u201d she answered. \u201cAnd I\u2019ll take that. He\u2019s a hell of a shooter, and he\u2019s tough.
