The WNBA is officially back, and Sophie Cunningham is already making headlines—both for her game and her game-day style.
As the Indiana Fever tip off their season against the Dallas Wings on May 9, Cunningham gave fans a sneak peek of her tunnel look on TikTok. She started off casual in an oversized white tee and messy bun before switching into a dark denim tank and matching shorts. She completed the courtside-ready outfit with black cowboy boots and a low half-up, half-down hairstyle.
The look earned a stamp of approval from Fever center Aliyah Boston, who simply commented, "Slayyyyyyyy." Fans flooded the comments with well-wishes for the regular season opener.
On the court, Cunningham has been building momentum. In three preseason games, she averaged 7.3 points, 1.3 rebounds, and 1.3 assists per game. But she's also been vocal about bigger changes this season—specifically around WNBA officiating. After being fined multiple times last year, Cunningham shared on her "Show Me Something" podcast that the league is focusing on accountability.
"New year, fresh start," she said. "We've had meetings with the refs, and I think they've owned up for last year. They're saying, 'We've got to be better.' But wait—does that mean I get my money back? If they're finally agreeing with what I saw the whole time, shouldn't I get reimbursed?"
Whether she's turning heads with her fashion or her fearless commentary, Cunningham is proving she's ready for a standout season.
