She&#8217;s also built an audience of more than <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/sophie_cham\/\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">4 million Instagram followers<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-3\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"6h\">Cunningham lets fans in with her social media posts.

She previously co-hosted &#8220;Show Me Something&#8221; with &#8220;Summer House&#8221; personality West Wilson, but that chapter came to an end. Hanlen replaces former co-host Wilson after the program&#8217;s nearly three-month break.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-10\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"7p\">&#8220;No Hesitation&#8221; gives Cunningham a fresh platform to talk basketball and connect with listeners while she has some extra time away from the court.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Sophie Cunningham is BACK with world renowned basketball trainer Drew Hanlen.
