Sophie Cunningham just became one of the most popular players in the WNBA last night, after getting into a brawl at the end of the Fever’s game against the Sun, which has caused her jersey sales to skyrocket.

Sophie Cunningham’s popularity was already on the rise after joining Cailtlin Clark and the Indiana Fever this offseason. After a late-game skirmish with Jacy Sheldon during Indiana’s game against the Connecticut Sun last night, Cunningham’s jersey has sold out.
Not to worry, however, as you can still custom-order her jersey on the Fanatics website by clicking here.
Cunningham came to the defense of her teammate Clark, retaliating with less than a minute left on the clock after, earlier in the game, the Fever’s superstar player was poked in the eye and then knocked to the ground by two separate Sun players.
The Fever have been searching for an enforcer ever since Clark entered the WNBA, and it seems they might have finally found the player they were looking for. Someone has to come to the defense of Clark, as she is constantly being pushed around on the court, and if Cunningham can take over that role, it will be huge for the team.
Click on any of the images or links to order now. Place your order before it is too late, as these will be in high demand. Fanatics has you covered with officially licensed Sophie Cunningham Indiana Fever Jerseys.
