What's next for Indiana Fever guard Sophie Cunningham with her WNBA playoffs done?
Guard Sophie Cunningham returned to the Fever on a one-year deal. She will now be an unrestricted free agent.
The Indiana Fever have been eliminated from the WNBA playoffs by the Las Vegas Aces, prompting speculation about the future of guard Sophie Cunningham. The 30-year-old returned to the team this season after recovering from a knee injury last year. Cunningham signed a one-year, $665,000 contract with the Fever for 2026 and will become an unrestricted free agent after the season.
Due to her injury, she missed out on the opportunity to work out for teams during the offseason, which has left her feeling frustrated. Cunningham emphasized her desire to win and her willingness to be honest about her readiness, stating that her career decisions are driven by her goal to win. She started three games for the Fever this season and was part of the team that finished with a 28-16 regular-season record, earning the No. 6 seed in the playoffs.
