In fact, Gray's strong play over the past week led to some big news for the 6-foot guard. The WNBA announced on Tuesday that, for the first time in her career, Gray has been named the Eastern Conference Player of the Week behind averages of 26.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 4.0 assists in two games played last week. Griner caught wind of the news and the nine-time All-Star decided to flex her teammate's milestone. Griner took to Instagram to share the Dream's post announcing Gray's Player of the Week win. Griner had no caption for her post, instead opting to add a selection of emojis to emphasize her flex. Advertisement Thanks to Gray's strong run, Atlanta was able to make it four straight wins.

Sophie Cunningham Reacts to the WNBA's Message About Her Pregame Actions
Sophie Cunningham Reacts to the WNBA's Message About Her Pregame Actions originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Sophie Cunningham remains sidelined for the Indiana Fever on Tuesday as they take on the Atlanta Dream in a road game at Gateway Center Arena. Advertisement The 6-foot-1 was ruled out of the contest due to an ankle injury, which is the same issue that has kept her out of the Fever's previous two games. Cunningham, however, still joined her team for their road game in Atlanta. In fact, she grabbed a lot of attention as she entered the arena ahead of the matchup. The WNBA could not help but notice how the 28-year-old struggled to follow teammate DeWanna Bonner after the latter struck a pose in her fashion-forward all-black ensemble. "When the group chat didn't discuss a dress code. DeWanna Bonner pulled up looking runway ready, and Sophie Cunningham didn't know how to follow it up 🤣" the league posted on Instagram. View the original article to see embedded media. Cunningham, who sported a much more casual outfit compared to Bonner, was left in shock after seeing her teammate flex her outfit for the cameras as if she were on a fashion runway. Cunningham clearly didn't get the memo, but she was still able to make the most of his time in the spotlight by striking her own hilarious poses. Advertisement She then took to Instagram to react to the WNBA's message. "caption on point," she wrote. The WNBA noticed Cunningham's shocked reaction, and it also commented on how the Fever failed to coordinate their dress code for the game. Based on her response, it is clear that Cunningham agrees with the league's assessment completely. Much like she has during past games, Cunningham has been relegated to a cheerleading role from the bench on Tuesday night. She will join Caitlin Clark on the sidelines as the reigning WNBA Rookie of the Year also continues to nurse a quad injury.

It will be a big one, too, as the Fever take on the defending champs, the New York Liberty, on Saturday at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

It's a road game for the 4-4 Fever with the Atlanta Dream hosting a shorthanded Indiana side at Gateway Center Arena.

Six-time All-Star DeWanna Bonner immediately stood out with her all-black ensemble that featured a halter-style top and wide-leg trousers. Bonner was more than happy to strike a pose for the cameras, too. Coming next to her was Sophie Cunningham, whose fit didn't exactly match her teammate's powerful, fashion-forward look.
