About this person
Sophie Cunningham led Rock Bridge High School in Columbia, Missouri to four straight state titles, then became Missouri's all-time leading scorer across four seasons and a three-time first-team All-SEC pick. The Phoenix Mercury took her 13th overall in 2019, where she spent six years carving out a role as a three-point specialist before the trade to Indiana in 2025. With the Fever, she's become the enforcer in the Caitlin Clark era - the reserve who draws headlines for physical play and on-court protection. The arc runs from small-town dominance to precision shooter to the player opposing teams know will answer back.
