Sophie Cunningham: Offseason Adventures and a Viral Moment

Sophie Cunningham, a standout player for the Indiana Fever, is keeping her offseason packed with activities. She's been busy healing from a knee injury that cut her 2025 WNBA season short. This injury, a torn right MCL, happened during a game against the Connecticut Sun last August. Despite this setback, Cunningham is staying active. She's hosting her podcast, "Show Me Something, " with her friend West Wilson. She also made an appearance on "Good Morning America" and starred in an Adidas ad. Cunningham's offseason got even more interesting when she attended the NASCAR Cup Series Championship at Phoenix Raceway. She experienced the whole event, from riding in the pace car to attending Jordan Davis' concert. She also met drivers and other VIPs. One of the highlights was her brief meeting with actress Sydney Sweeney. Their photo together went viral. On her podcast, Cunningham shared her thoughts about Sweeney. She said, "She’s actually so nice. I think she’s a very nice girl. " Their conversation was short, lasting only a minute or two. Cunningham mentioned that the event was a lot of fun. Cunningham is a free agent this offseason, and it's unclear if she'll stay with the Indiana Fever. As one of the most popular players in the WNBA, her moves will be closely watched.
