Columbia, Missouri native Sophie Cunningham played four seasons at Missouri before the Phoenix Mercury selected her 13th overall in the 2019 WNBA Draft. A four-team trade sent her to the Indiana Fever in January 2025, and she re-signed with the team for 2026. An adidas athlete, she has worn the Crazy Energy+ Execution and D.O.N. Issue 8, and received her own Crazy Energy PE in a pink-to-white gradient, released July 24, 2026.
