Sophie Cunningham wasn’t healthy enough to play for the Indiana Fever on Saturday night, but she still did enough to send social media crazy over her arrival outfit in Chicago.
The Fever beat Angel Reese and Co with ease in the first ever WNBA game held at United Center – even with injured duo Caitlin Clark and Cunningham playing the role of assistant coaches on the sidelines.
And before the game had even begun, Cunningham had set fans wild with her bold fit, posing for photos with Clark during their arrival at the arena.
Taking to X, one labeled the Australian ‘turbo hot’, while another added: ‘I’d let Sophie Cunningham ruin my life.’
A third said: ‘Sophie Cunningham is a total babe,’ while a fourth noted: ‘Sophie Cunningham could save my life.’
On TikTok and Instagram before the game, Cunningham revealed her pregame outfit to her followers, pairing a sheer barely-there top with black shorts and a blazer.

Clark, meanwhile, opted for a green halterneck top and matching pants, before the pair both changed into sportswear for their role on the sidelines.
Clark and Cunningham have grown ever-closer since the latter’s arrival in Indiana during the offseason, with many labeling them ‘besties’ after various snaps of the pair together on and off the court.
On Saturday night, the Fever didn’t need two of their best players – or their coach – to seal a huge win over the rival Sky.

Chicago put up a season-worst 52 points in the 79-52 scoreline, despite a bumper home crowd that had shown up for the game.
Indiana guard Kelsey Mitchell led her team in scoring with 17 points, while Aliyah Boston and Natasha Howard were both in double figures.
Cunningham and Clark, meanwhile, are edging closer to a return from injury. The former is suffering from an ankle issue, while Clark is due back next week after her ankle problem.
