Photos and videos of Cunningham pointing her finger at Phoenix Mercury player DeWanna Bonner during a game at the end of June exploded across the internet, becoming one of the most viral sports memes of 2026. The White House made its own social media post on June 30 referencing the meme, sharing a clip of Cunningham addressing the point on her podcast last week and adding a famous video of Trump himself pointing at the camera during the 2024 campaign.
Cunningham shared her thoughts on the White House's post while speaking to reporters on Friday.

Cunningham said on her podcast that her technical foul she got for the pointing gesture during the game against the Mercury was "the weakest thing I’ve ever seen in my life" and explaining that she "didn’t say a word" while "all I was doing was literally pointing."
"I couldn't help myself. I could not. She was losing her s--- and all I was doing was literally pointing," Cunningham said.
