Sophie Cunningham Is Taking The High Road Heading Into The WNBA Finals

Sophie Cunningham, the Indiana Fever’s 30-year-old guard, is demonstrating unexpected class as the team prepares for the 2026 WNBA Finals. After the Fever’s early playoff exit to the Las Vegas Aces, Cunningham—whose past clashes with Dream players have been well-documented—praised the Atlanta Dream’s roster depth and leadership in a recent podcast interview.

She singled out veteran forward DeWanna Bonner, whose experience and on-court presence have been pivotal for the Dream’s postseason run, calling her a ‘beast’ and a ‘head of the snake.’ Cunningham’s remarks underscore the Dream’s impressive playoff performance, which has propelled them to the Finals after a strong regular season. The series opener against the Golden State Valkyries is set for Saturday, marking a historic showdown in the league’s most anticipated finale.
