Sophie Cunningham is a pro on and off the court, giving fans what they want.

The Phoenix Mercury guard certainly knows how to shoot the ball and stay fashionable with her outfits.

Cunningham became a fan favorite this past WNBA season due to her sharpshooting on the court and her fashion off it.

This week, she took to her Instagram story and posted a picture of herself in her workout gear, relaxing in a sauna.

SCunningham was one of many women who took advantage of the increased attention from this past year as mini-fashion shows went viral before every regular season game.

 

“The outfits that have went really viral, my mom has actually picked them out,” Cunningham told the New York Post. “It’s been really fun because now (my family) is on all the outfits. And trust me, my family is like, ‘Oh, gosh, what’s Sophie gonna wear today?’ It’s just like a running joke.”

 

Phoenix Mercury Signed Sophie Cunningham To Contract Extension

The Phoenix Mercury knows the value of guard/forward Sophie Cunningham, which is why they signed her up for a contract extension through the 2025 season.

Cunningham, a six-year WNBA veteran who has played her entire career in Phoenix, has been a staple of the team since her emergence. Now, they are showing her loyalty by ensuring that she is with the team for the following year.

“Phoenix has become my home away from home, and I am so thrilled to be in the Valley and continue to get to play in front of the best fans in the W – the X-Factor,” Cunningham said in a statement. “The investments Mat is making in our organization are unmatched, and I couldn’t be more excited to be a part of what we are building here, on the court and in the community.”

Cunningham averaged 8.4 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 2.0 assists per game for the Mercury. She started 21 of 40 games for the Mercury.

If Cunningham can build off the success she had in 2024, it’s possible she’ll receive yet another extension from the Mercury.

In order for Cunningham to secure long-term security, she will have to continue to do what she does and improve even more so the team can get back to making a run through the postseason as they once did.

With the retirement of Diana Taurasi, Cunningham might have that shot in 2025.

Kansas City Chiefs President Forced To Address Rumors That Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce’s Relationship Is Just A “Marketing Strategy” For The Team

There’s a conspiracy theory for just about everything, including bizarre ones relating to the highly publicized relationship between Grammy Award-winning singer Taylor Swift and Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

The three-time Super Bowl champion has been in a relationship with Taylor Swift for over a year. Their rumored romance was confirmed when Swift attended the Chiefs’ Week 3, 2023 home game against the Chicago Bears at Arrowhead Stadium.

Kelce’s romance with Swfit has been a giant win for the Chiefs and the NFL, too. She has brought plenty more attention to the NFL and contributed to the Chiefs’ skyrocketing popularity worldwide.

Naturally, conspiracy theorists believe the Travis Kelce-Taylor Swift romance is simply a marketing ploy to help the Chiefs and the league. But Chiefs president Mark Donovan finally addressed the ridiculous rumor during an appearance on NBC’s “Squawk Box” program:

“I’d love to say that it was a marketing strategy, but it is an authentic relationship. And we’re happy to have it, and it’s been nothing but good for us.

I think the best thing I can say about the whole relationship and the impact it’s had on us is, Taylor Swift is an authentic member of the Kansas City Chiefs kingdom. She’s an authentic fan and that matters to our fans and our fan base and to matters to us and we try to respect that.”
