She currently has 1.3 million followers on Instagram and 1.6 million followers on TikTok.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As far as Cunningham&#8217;s WNBA career is concerned, she&#8217;s coming off a frustrating season with the Fever. She started playing some of her best basketball of the season in the summer before going down with an MCL tear in her right knee.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Cunningham averaged 8.6 points and 3.5 rebounds per game for the Fever. The veteran sharpshooter really stepped up during Caitlin Clark&#8217;s absence.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">We can&#8217;t wait to see what Cunningham has in store for her fans in 2026.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">This story was originally reported by <a href=\"https:\/\/thespun.com\/wnba\/wnba-star-sophie-cunningham-makes-plea-to-victorias-secret\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:The Spun;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">The Spun<\/a> on Oct 22, 2025, where it first appeared in the <a href=\"https:\/\/thespun.com\/wnba\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:WNBA;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">WNBA<\/a> section.
