Sophie Cunningham on her future with the WNBA

Cunningham was one of several WNBA players to suffer a season-ending injury.The Fever alone have suffered several season-ending injuries including: Sydney Colson (torn ACL), Aari McDonald (broken foot), Caitlin Clark (groin strain and bone bruise), and Chloe Bibby (knee).

Like most WNBA athletes entering the 2026 season, Cunningham is among the list that will be free agents. As she preps for the upcoming season, there is a lot of unease for many players.

“There is a lot of uncertainty, like you said, with the CBA, with the money, if we’re even going to have a league next year,” she told High Hope Hoops. “And then people want to come back, we’re trying to keep our core together.”

The WNBA and WNBA Players Association agreed to an extension on the current CBA through Jan. 9.
