In what is becoming a weekly occurrence, Sophie Cunningham has been fined by the WNBA for publicly criticizing the officials.

The team said they signed guard Shey Peddy to a seven-day hardship contract "in a corresponding move" to deal with Cunningham's injury. Star Fever player Caitlin Clark is also still dealing with a groin injury and has missed 22 games this season.

The WNBA fined Sophie Cunningham again after the Indiana Fever star criticized referees on her podcast for giving Dallas Wings' Paige Bueckers too many whistles.

"I'm officially 3-for-3 on being fined by the WNBA," Fever guard Sophie Cunningham said on latest episode of her Show Me Something podcast.

Cunningham was injured in the second quarter when Sun guard Bria Hartley fell and made contact with her leg as she fell to the court after firing off a pass in the paint. Cunningham immediately grabbed her leg and fell to the court while screaming in pain before having to be helped to the back by the trainers.

Fever guard Sophie Cunningham fired back at someone who called her sister a bitch over remarks she made about “poor officiating” and the WNBA protecting its players.

Sophie Cunningham, Sydney Colson and Aari McDonald are out for the season, while Caitlin Clark has missed 13 straight games with a groin injury.

Former Missouri and current Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham has officially been ruled out for the remainder of the 2025 WNBA season, with a torn right MCL.
