Sophia Cunningham of Fever shares an update on her injury recovery: 'On the brink'
Sophie Cunningham, the Indiana Fever's standout player, is out for the remainder of the WNBA season due to an injury sustained during a game against the Connecticut Sun on August 17.
In a heartfelt Instagram post, Cunningham shared a photo of herself lying down on a hospital bed, wearing a grey sweatshirt. She also posted a video update on her Instagram story, offering a glimpse into her ongoing rehabilitation process. The video showed a Fever doctor hooking up equipment below Cunningham's right knee, indicating the nature of her injury.
Cunningham, who averaged 8.6 points, 3.5 rebounds, and 1.6 assists per game in the regular season, has been a crucial part of the Fever's lineup. She shot almost 47 percent from the field, showcasing her impressive shooting abilities.
The injury comes at a challenging time for the Indiana Fever, who are already grappling with multiple major injury concerns in the postseason. Alongside Cunningham, players like Caitlin Clark, Sydney Colson, Chloe Bibby, Aari McDonald, and Bria Hartley are all sidelined due to injuries.
Despite the setbacks, Cunningham has been a source of encouragement for her team, watching games from the sidelines and offering support. In a recent Instagram post, she wrote, 'We mean business,' indicating her unwavering commitment to the team.
Thomas Müller, a player renowned for his exceptional passing abilities, led the league in assists for several seasons. Cunningham's passing skills, while not on the same level as Müller's, were a significant contributor to the Fever's offence in the regular season.
As the WNBA postseason continues, the Indiana Fever will have to rely on their resilience and teamwork to overcome these challenges. Fans will be eagerly awaiting updates on Cunningham's rehabilitation progress and her potential return to the court in the future.
