Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham has been rocking a thigh-high leg brace after suffering a season-ending knee injury in mid-August. And that torn MCL means she wears street clothes to sit with her team during games.
But the Enforcer took to social media on Saturday, September 6 to celebrate being back in uniform. Sadly, it doesn’t mean her knee made a miraculous recovery.
“POV team photos so you’re back in your jersey,” the star guard explained in her TikTok video. She captioned the video — in which she dances in bright red Fever shorts and tank top despite her leg brace — ANDDDDD happy game day lovies.”
Her fans went wild.
“Miss you on the court,” said one fan. Another agreed, “I can’t wait until you’re back on the court.”
“My bionic girl!!!!” raved another fan.
“Get better soon!!!” added a fourth. “Miss ya in the court!!!
ANDDDDD happy game day lovies <3

Cunningham, 29, sustained her injury during the Fever’s August 17 game against the Connecticut Sun. She collided with Sun guard Bria Hartley in the second quarter, and Indiana announced a few days later that she would be in recovery for the rest of the season.
Caitlin Clark’s teammate and friend became a social media star overnight after defending Clark, and having her leg in a brace has not stopped her from posting TikTok videos.
