‘Love this’ – Sophie Cunningham praised after taking part in meet-and-greets with veterans

Sophie Cunningham has been conducting meet-and-greets with veterans throughout the 2026 season, the Indiana Fever have now shared.

Cunningham has enjoyed another successful year in the WNBA and has been put forward by the Fever to potentially win the Sixth Player of the Year award.

Indiana are set to compete in the playoffs in 2026 as well, but Cunningham is instead now being praised for her work off the court.

Taking to their official X/Twitter this week, the Indiana Fever revealed: “Throughout the season Sophie Cunningham welcomed veterans to @GainbridgeFH for a special gameday experience featuring an exclusive meet-and-greet and premium seats courtesy of Gainbridge.”

They also shared a number of photos with Cunningham meeting some fans, while others have now praised her in the comments of the post.

One fan wrote: “This is awesome!”

From the source Another responded: “Love this! Love Sophie! @sophaller Thank you Fever for the shout-out for Sophie!

A third commented: “Please give her the long term contract she desires and deserves.”

“Class act right there. And she can play, gotta love and respect the way she interacts with people,” added a fourth.

Another exclaimed: “Thank you for supporting veterans, Sophie!!” with a sixth writing: “Awesome young lady! Thanks, Sophie!”

Cunningham is now in the midst of a short break as she is not part of the USA team competing at the FIBA World Cup.

But the Fever and Sophie will return to the court for their final four regular-season games later this month before then competing in the playoffs.
