Fever Player Makes 'Trouble' Admission About New Photo With Caitlin Clark
Fever Player Makes 'Trouble' Admission About New Photo With Caitlin Clark originally appeared on Athlon Sports. It wasn't just Caitlin Clark who was out of action for the Indiana Fever on Tuesday night. Clark, who is expected to miss at least one more game with a quad injury, was joined on the sidelines by offseason recruit Sophie Cunningham, who was unable to suit up against the Washington Mystics due to an ankle issue. Advertisement Both guards were relegated to the bench on Tuesday as they were left with no choice but to play the role of cheerleaders for their squad. Cunningham caught wind of a photo of herself and Clark from the game. In it, the two are shown in the Jumbotron at Gainbridge Fieldhouse with similar worrying expressions on their faces. "Why do we look like we got in trouble???" Cunningham commented on the photo. Clark and Cunningham were snapped during a crucial juncture in the game. At that point in time, there were less than two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter as the Fever held on to a precarious five-point lead. Advertisement The tense situation could explain the expression on their faces.

Indiana improved to 3-4 after Tuesday's victory, and they will now prepare to face their biggest rivals, the Chicago Sky, in a road game on Saturday. Clark won't be available for that matchup, and it remains to be seen at this point if Cunningham will be able to play against Angel Reese and Co.

Fever Coach Stephanie White Addresses Sophie Cunningham Problem
Fever Coach Stephanie White Addresses Sophie Cunningham Problem originally appeared on Athlon Sports. After winning back-to-back games last week, the Fever came crashing back down to earth on Tuesday. They were completely outplayed by the Atlanta Dream, who ended up securing a dominant 77-58 win over a shorthanded Indiana side. Advertisement The Dream exposed a significant issue for the Fever, which is their lack of personnel. In particular, the absence of Caitlin Clark, who has been nursing a quad injury over the past couple of weeks, was a big problem for an Indiana squad that did not have its best player available. To a certain extent, missing the services of veteran Sophie Cunningham also proved to be an issue for Indiana. The 6-foot-1 guard has missed five out of the Fever's nine games this season because of a lingering ankle injury. After sitting out her team's first two games, Cunningham, who joined the Fever in the offseason via trade, made her debut on May 22. She lasted four games before she ended up re-injuring the same ankle on May 30 and has sat out Indiana's last three contests.

This is exactly why head coach Stephanie White is taking a cautious approach in terms of Cunningham's return to action. Advertisement 'The biggest thing is just listening to the training staff and trusting our gut when we get her out there and see her moving,' White said on Thursday during practice, via Chloe Peterson of IndyStar. 'If there's any sort of questions or hesitancy in movement patterns … that maybe it's just not balanced or unequal, that we scale it back a little bit and that we be patient on that. And making sure the first time that she's out there isn't a game, right? It's working our way back in practice.' Cunningham has been practicing with the team throughout the week, but as White indicated in her statement, there is no rush to bring her back. The Fever's next game is on Saturday against the defending champion New York Liberty, and as of right now, Cunningham's status for that matchup remains up in the air.

Sophie Cunningham Left Speechless by Statement From Indiana Fever President
Sophie Cunningham Left Speechless by Statement From Indiana Fever President originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Indiana Fever announced on Friday that both Caitlin Clark and Sophie Cunningham are expected to return to action in their game against the New York Liberty on Saturday. Advertisement Both guards have been dealing with respective injuries that have forced them to miss Indiana's last few games. While there's no denying that Clark's return is a big development here, the Fever are also excited to get Cunningham's services back now that she's recovered from her ankle injury. On Friday, a strong message from team president Kelly Krauskopf caught Cunningham's attention. The veteran guard shared a post from ESPNW that contained the Fever boss' statement about team chemistry. "In sports, there are two types of chemistry: the on-court chemistry and then the things you don't really know until you get everybody together and see how they interact," Krauskopf said in a recent interview. Cunningham decided to also share the quote via her Instagram stories. Cunningham was left speechless by Krauskopf's message. The 28-year-old guard did not have any caption for her post, instead letting the quote speak for itself. Advertisement Cunningham joined the Fever in the offseason via a complex 10-team trade. Compared to the other players on the squad who have been playing alongside each other for multiple years now, Cunningham is considered the new kid on the block. However, it is clear that she has gotten along well with her teammates over the last four months. The fact that she reposted Krasukopf's message appears to indicate that Cunningham also believes in the importance of team chemistry.

Cunningham has missed five out of Indiana's first nine games this season due to her lingering ankle issue, which has prevented her from showing what she can bring to the table for the team on a consistent basis. Advertisement Cunningham appears to have finally recovered from the injury, and she will now be looking to remain on the court to help her teammates achieve their ultimate goal of winning a championship this season.
