Sophie Cunningham suffered a frightening right -of -right injury which forced her to leave the Indiana fever match against Connecticut Sun on Sunday.
Cunningham needed help to leave the court at the start of the second quarter after Bria Hartley from the sun fell in her while trying to make a pass.
Cunningham intensified to provide an additional defense in the painting, and while Hartley turned the ball at Lexie Hull, she lost the place and fell directly into the right leg of the fever star.

She jumped immediately, grabbing her leg around her knee. Cunningham, with a towel above his head, was helped by coaches in the locker room.
The fever confirmed that it was a right knee injury for Cunningham, which was excluded for the rest of the match, according to the Indy Star. However, the severity of the injury has not yet been disclosed.
Fund fans perhaps fear the worst for Cunningham, who had clear pain.

Indiana does not seem to move away from the injury bug lately, because the guardian of Superstar Caitlin Clark remains with a groin disease.
The fever also announced on August 8 that Sydney Colson and Aari McDonald, the two Indiana guards, were excluded for the rest of the 2025 season. Colson torn his left ACL, while McDonald has a broken bone in his right foot.
Cunningham left the match without scoring a point for fever, missing his three goal attempts on the field. She had a rebound and a turnover.

The fever hopes that Cunningham’s injury is not as bad as it looks. On Sunday, they are the seventh seeded team in the WNBA ranking at 18-16, the eight best teams winning a trip to the playoffs.
