Sophie Cunningham Makes Career Move After One Season with Indiana Fever

Sophie Cunningham watched as Stephanie White and the Indiana Fever pulled off one of the more surprising runs of the 2025 WNBA Playoffs. The No. 6 seed Fever advanced from the first round with a 2–1 win over the No. 3 seed Atlanta Dream, then pushed the No. 2 seed Las Vegas Aces to five games in the semifinals. And they did it all without Cunningham and Caitlin Clark.

Toward the end of the regular season, Cunningham suffered a torn MCL in her right knee against the Connecticut Sun, ending her season. But the former Phoenix Mercury guard was able to find success in her first year in Indiana, averaging 8.6 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 30 games played.

In her first season with the Fever, Cunningham also continued to build her brand off the court, partnering with major companies such as Adidas and Arby’s. And on Thursday, she took another step in her off-court career by teaming up with Placed to launch with Placed by Sophie.
