The 2026 Indiana Fever might not be very different from the last season, with the front office keeping the core intact. Sophie Cunningham was the final piece from the 2025 roster as she sacrificed her personal goals to return to the franchise.
While the coach Sephanie White backed the former Missouri star for her desire for the long-term contract, the player now showed her new wish.

The Indiana Fever shared the photos on Instagram. Cunningham commented that “I wanna see me in the 10 million dollar car!!!” During the offseason, the player famously said, “That’s Where I Belong” about her experience with Sydney Sweeney at the NASCAR event.
The player signed a one-year, $665,000 deal to return to the Fever team in free agency. The WNBA star showed a strong interest in high-performance and luxury vehicles, including driving a pace car for NASCAR and engaging with luxury brands, rather than publicizing a large personal collection.

Talking about her involvement, coach White said, “Yeah, I thought she was good. Sophie is solid for us. On the defensive end, rebounding, her activity level, her communication. We’ve got to find her more, though.”

“She’s a knockdown three-point shooter. I thought we missed her a lot. We missed her open looks. She’s getting back to being an elite cutter because she’s also a very good cutter. And she’s a great ball mover. So we’ve just got to get her more touches on the offensive end,” White added.
Interestingly, in 2025, Sophie Cunningham was the fourth-highest scorer and rebounder on the team despite playing in 30 games in the season.
