This week, it was announced that the WNBA is coming back to Detroit. Thanks to a campaign that included efforts and investments from Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff and team owner Sheila Hamp, the Detroit Shock will return to the league in 2029.
But not everyone is happy about that news. Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham expressed some skepticism over the cities chosen for expansion, which include Cleveland (2028) and Philadelphia (2030). Her argument is that there were better choices, and that WNBA players may not want to go to a city like Detroit.
