I've wanted Sophie to join the Fever since the interaction with CC at the wnba all-star game. LOL. Sophie is the only player outside the Fever to embrace the CCE. Sophie acknowledged she hooked up with a personal sponsor due to the CCE. Sophie knows that her salary is only a small part of the financial income she should earn from being on the Fever. The future's bright...the future's Fever.
@@AbzScotland I remember we were all joking about how Sophie was acting all sweet to CC, because she was trying to recruit Caitlin to the Mercury 😂 Well, guess she decided to come to Indy instead lol
I will go there. Sophie Cunningham is "camera-ready" artwork. She will end up earning a lot more in endorsement money with Caitlin and the Fever than she would have anywhere else.
Yes, they are building a run fast team. Don't need size, just speed. Only problem is AB throws in the ball after a made basket. So she will be lucky to make it back to half court by the time CC or Mitchel or one of the runners had already made a basket. AB will be the slowest player on the floor in fast break games.
Sophie Cunningham is perfect for the Fever. She is high energy, and can run. She is very cognizant of the opportunities that playing with CC brings. The 100K salary probably isn't a big concern for her. She is already making auxiliary money from endorsements. Playing in Indiana will only increase her popularity and endorsement opportunities. This is a turning point for the league. Fast paced style with beautiful women on the team. The Fever are going to be even more of a show than last year. Caitlin is stronger and better. No more cancer on the team. Upgrade at coaching, and management. CC is going to average 10-12 assists per game. Wouldn't surprise me if she has a few 20 assist games.
I dare any WNBA bully to try come after Caitlin now because one thing for certain Howard and Cunningham are enforcers and both of them has praised CC since she came into the league
Aw stop I've followed howards career since she was a freshman in highschool she ain't no dam enforcer and don't know where the hell u get that from why in hell is someone gonna take the risk and getting suspended taking up for Clark these players don't make that much money y'all are soo stupid when u say that
@@anthonytaylor7928 this isn't hockey, nobody needs to drop the gloves. Most of the W "bullies" wilt with someone just getting in their face and Cunningham will 100% do that, she's a firecracker.
The Fever don't need the #8 pick. Whoever they would get for #8 would have ridden the bench most of the year as they tried to adjust to the league. The Fever are ready to win NOOOOOOW. This is an AWESOME trade, and between the two of them, Howard and Cunningham, they tick all the boxes of what was missing. Enforcers? check 3pt stretch? check Defense? check Veterans? check Playoff experience? check Championship experience? check Great fit? check Increase in PPG? check Hotness factor? check. (I had to say it.) Fever fan base will increase between Lexie and Sophie. Even as is, these two acquisitions make the Fever contenders. BUT...I don't think the Fever are done. Kelly K. has something cookin' over in Europe...mark my words. 2025, LET'S GOOOOOOOOO.
This is so exciting, I never thought Sophie would leave Arizona, but I'm so happy she's coming to the Fever! And the Fever remain the most normal and likeable team in the league. She's a huge Caitlin fan....her words. Ticket prices just went up even more.
There's one difference between them. Defense is a particular strength of Lexie's game. Sophie is not as strong with the defense as Lexie. That's why Lexie is still listed as the starter.
@gnome963 Oh, I didn't say she won't get good playing time. She can also give you time at the 2, and possibly in an emergency at the 1 as well. So can Lexie. There might even be times when Grace and Caitlin are on the floor together. That's the point, versatility. But Lexie's the better defender right now, so the spot is hers. Porter will work with Sophie, and he's already working with Lexie a bit. But right now, the starting spot is Lexie's spot. Add in that Sophie has already said that she would come off the bench on the right team, one that appreciated her skills and would put them to good use. Can you picture Stephanie White not using her players best abilities wherever she can? Sophie, Lexie, Grace, and Damiris will all see significant playing time, and so will Katie Lou if her play in Unrivaled is an example of where her game is today.
I’m glad the Smith saga has ended. Losing the 8th pick reduces the celebration. Sophie Cunningham will fit right in. The Fever Roster is looking good! Now we’ll find out if Coach White can master the rotations.
I love it. I love Sophie and excited for Natasha and thrilled to get the Smith/Carrington bs further away from this team. I really like satou and wish her the best but I'm pumped. I love it
Love Sophie! Great pickup for indy. She plays good D & she can shoot. Good riddance nalyssa. Sophie always wanted to play with cc. CC has 2 enforcers now. Let's go fever! 💪🏼
MARK MY WORDS: Sophie is going to be a DOMINANT Force on The Fever & make fast friends with the squad...the vets coming in will mentor CC & AB faster/better than we can fathom right now...this team will be a JUGGERNAUT
Fever going with the "win now" mentality for sure. Who would they really get with that #8 pick anyway. Hell I'd give up an eighth pick for free if someone took Smith, but instead, we get Sophi. This is a win
Apparently any 1st round pick gets an automatic contract that goes against cap space even if they get cut. Also expansion teams in upcoming seasons can draft off the roster. They were allowed to protect 6 this year.
Huge trade for sure I love getting Sophie even if we had to to give up the #8th pick to get it done. If you remember back in the all all star game when Sophie was trying to talk CC into coming to the Mercs. Cunningham doesnt take any crap either , the personalities of Hull and Cunningham are way different . Sophie wont take any BS and maybe the only player on the fever with that attitude . I remember watching her play in college so I know how she is. So Bringing in both Howard and Cunningham will change the fever into even more of a running team than they are now ,,, should be a lotta fun to watch them play. Giving up the 8th is a drag but we were able to ship out Smith and it was worth it.
WNBA basketball has changed to a fast pace up and down where you don't need a bunch of slow bigs anymore they're gonna be a fun thing to watch for sure
What made sense for a young, CC-led team was to add players who were a) self confident enough to appreciate and be motivated to play their best *with* CC and the rest of the team, not play subversive games, b) mature enough not to get drawn into colorist snark and drama, c) strong defenders, d) fast, athletic players generally, e) smart players w. high bball IQ's who both want and are able to learn new moves from a smart coach, f) essentially mature, experienced, and quite accomplished players who know how to work well with others and enjoy the game. People ready to respect all their teammates, appreciate all the attention, and gel as a team. What they did *not* need was another very young player/rising star who'd already presented as a little full of herself, aka Satou. They have lots of young talent already who deserve the chance to develop and play, not just be benchwarmers. So in my mind Cunningham and Howard make awesome additions. Can't wait to see how this team operates with this coach. All they and the rest of the league need now are capable and honest refs, and it'll be a great season. Fingers crossed. -- Go Indy!
Too much teeth gnashing over giving away the 8th pick. Cox and White may believe that they wouldn't get who they need by the 8th pick. Smith had to go, everybody knew it, and the other teams had the leverage on the Fever. I doubt there were any teams begging for Smith even though she has talent. The Fever are going to be a happy team and that counts for a lot.
3 point shooters for the Fever. No.1. in the league CC. Possibly No.2 Kelsey Mitchell. Then they have Lexie Hull, Sophie Cunningham and KLS. You also have Damiris Dantas. They may pick up a stretch 4 with the money they have left. They still have near max money for 1 more player.
Bodycheck CC this year. Natasha Howard will break your jaw or Sophie will fight you. She has basically went after half the league. Sophie hit 37% 3's this year with players in her face. She can hit 40% with wide open 3's.
Aw shut up howard doesn't play like that ain't nobody gonna hit anybody and take the risk of getting suspended or getting fined they don't make that much money that is soo stupid for idiots like u when u say that
This is great news, Sophie coming to the Fever! We know she wants to play with CC, and she'll be a great addition to the team. She's like another Lexi Hull, with an attitude.
Fever know that pick 8 and 19 are similar. If it isn't 1-3, then difference is marginal. Take a look at previous #8 picks. If you can leverage picks to get veterans to fit your vision, that is the correct route. Fever marketing department should have a field day with having 2 attractive blondes on the roster.
Cunningham is a much stronger and vocal leader than Hull........Cunningham backs down to no one...CC and Sophie play with fire! Something the Fever lacked last year...AB and KM are more laid back....this is a great move
Hope I’m wrong but I’m not as positive re Samuelsson’s contribution to the team this year. Samuelsson last year gave zero indication she’ll be better this year-she doesn’t have the legs for up tempo style of offense-when on the court was always trailing on the fast break. She was not a scoring threat, did not facilitate other players, and was a traffic cone on D. Remember, she was a one time starter and was benched for non production. Fever did her a favor by keeping her. Expect Samuelsson, barring injuries to other players, to make the bench her Indiana home.
The Fever needs to a backup big. Elena would be great she suffers from Lyme disease and really doesn’t need full minutes and would add the playoff experience that would benefit all the young players.Her WNBA experience and stats are impressive. Watch some vids of her ballin.
The Fever FO has knocked FA out of the park so far! 1. Re-signed Kelsey Mitchell 2. Signed Natasha Howard 3. Traded for Sophie Cunningham while 4. Getting rid of Nalyssa “Dijonai’s boo” Smith They need one markee name (Elena Delle Donne, Dewanna Bonner or an overseas player)
The Fever need one more PF/C type player. Bonner is another SG/SF type player like Lexie and Sophie, so I don't think she is a fit any longer. Katie Lou and Wallace are also the same, with Katie Lou maybe as a small ball PF. Dantas is also a potential PF backup but not really relevant at the 5. I don't know who they get but they need one more big.
What I see is a team that is going to run and run and run. Swapping out players to rest them is going to be easy when they can put another running player in there. Maybe we should change the name to the Indiana Roadrunners - Beep Beep.
LOVE IT! Sophie is just player I was hoping for, one of very few that publicly gave credit to CC. This team will be so fast. Sophie is Lexi 2.0 can’t wait for next season
It's funny. I was happy for Sophie that she was able to get away from Cloud after they shipped her to Conn. This, is even better! Back to the Midwest! Flyover will welcome Sophie with open arms.
I do not think they are done. They may have decided that that #8 pick rookie money be better to get another free agent. They want to win now rather then a rookie who may be sitting on the bench.
Sophie for the #8 pick. You know you have experience, defense, physical mentality (enforcer) scoring. Proven player. Veteran locker room presence, Along with Howard. Yea I’m ok with this trade. 100%
I'll reserve judgement until I see how well this works. Seems to me the Fever is lacking in Forward skills, not in guard skills: CC, KM, LH, AW, GB, and Wallace. I also hope Victoria Saxton potential receives attention as well as KLS stepping up her game this year.
the Indiana Fever front office has improved so much from Lin Dunn and Christie Sides. this is night and day difference.
Sophie has made it abundantly clear she is happy to come off the bench - wherever she can make the most impact. 🥰
That's perfect...her and lexie will be running hard
She does seem like a kick ass player doesn't she
Her presence makes other players sharing same position better because they have to up their game if they want to get significant minutes on the court.
She'll probably start though with Lexie coming off the bench.
Sophie is fire...she doesn't take crap, she's a scrapper!
Perfect description she is a scrapper and now we have several players that will have cc back
And she is foine!
I'm such worried we won't see Lexi enough. We're stacked at the 3.
I've wanted Sophie to join the Fever since the interaction with CC at the wnba all-star game. LOL. Sophie is the only player outside the Fever to embrace the CCE. Sophie acknowledged she hooked up with a personal sponsor due to the CCE. Sophie knows that her salary is only a small part of the financial income she should earn from being on the Fever. The future's bright...the future's Fever.
@@AbzScotland I remember we were all joking about how Sophie was acting all sweet to CC, because she was trying to recruit Caitlin to the Mercury 😂 Well, guess she decided to come to Indy instead lol
The Future is Fever, love it!
I will go there. Sophie Cunningham is "camera-ready" artwork. She will end up earning a lot more in endorsement money with Caitlin and the Fever than she would have anywhere else.
You cannot overrate
the increased exposure the Fever provide. The vibe in the locker room will be so much better I would guess.
You’d be crazy to pass on a chance to play with Caitlin. All of these ladies will have deals.
Yesssssss! Finally they got rid of Smith. And grabbed Sophie too!!! This squad is looking real good ON and OFF the court 😉❤
Bye bye Smith don't let the door hit your rear on the way up. 🤣🤣🤣
How can it miss that rear
@johnnythunder196 🤣
Absolutely fantastic, I didn't think they were gonna get anything for Smith.
Happy to have Sophie join the Fever fam.
Another upgrade! Sophie made it known months ago she wanted to play with Caitlin. Notice that both recent trades upgrade the Fever's running game!
Yes, they are building a run fast team. Don't need size, just speed. Only problem is AB throws in the ball after a made basket. So she will be lucky to make it back to half court by the time CC or Mitchel or one of the runners had already made a basket. AB will be the slowest player on the floor in fast break games.

No more cancer on the team. Upgrade at coaching, and management. CC is going to average 10-12 assists per game. Wouldn't surprise me if she has a few 20 assist games.
Sophie Cunningham is costing the FEVER about hundred thousand dollars, leaving money left for another pick.
I dare any WNBA bully to try come after Caitlin now because one thing for certain Howard and Cunningham are enforcers and both of them has praised CC since she came into the league
And CC is hitting the weight room hard this off season.
Aw stop I've followed howards career since she was a freshman in highschool she ain't no dam enforcer and don't know where the hell u get that from why in hell is someone gonna take the risk and getting suspended taking up for Clark these players don't make that much money y'all are soo stupid when u say that

I would have traded Smith for a Costco hotdog.
Or a juice box !

They are contenders and the most beautiful team ever assembled 😂 ❤

We picked up another Lexie. Sophie hits the threes, she and Lexie brings energy. We split the game between Lexie and Sophie 50/50.
There's one difference between them. Defense is a particular strength of Lexie's game. Sophie is not as strong with the defense as Lexie. That's why Lexie is still listed as the starter.
@heinleinreader ok, I think tho that the energy Sophie brings plus stats and good team member I see Sophie playing good minutes as Lexie showdown.
@gnome963 Oh, I didn't say she won't get good playing time. She can also give you time at the 2, and possibly in an emergency at the 1 as well. So can Lexie.

The 2025 Indiana Fever will the the WNBA's version of the NFL's run and gun offense
Getting rid of Nalyssa was a "get" all in and of itself!
We couldn't draft someone at #8 who could contribute what Sophie can this year. Fever is wasting no time.

Good trade for Sophie to the Fever. She is tough and can be the enforcer Caitlin needs.
Awesome to get a go getter and get rid of Smith!
We now have a martial artist in the house!
Great move as this adds much needed depth to Indiana!
WNBA basketball has changed to a fast pace up and down where you don't need a bunch of slow bigs anymore they're gonna be a fun thing to watch for sure

Cunningham clearly wanted this trade and that's worth a hell of a lot
I doubt it. She forced to give up her sports announcing job. She left because MAGA Barbie was too much for their team.
Indiana now is like Iowa was. Fast paced, run and gun.
Except Thomas can’t run.

Not to mention she's cute as hell 😍
BONUS! Now the Fever have the two hottest, most beautiful ladies in the WNBA! Awesome. One more reason to watch The Fever!
Don't let the door hit your big ass on the way out, NaLyssa. The Fever don't want to have to replace it.
WOW ….. THE FEVER AIN’T PLAYING !
What’s the NEXT MOVE !
Fever know that pick 8 and 19 are similar. If it isn't 1-3, then difference is marginal. Take a look at previous #8 picks. If you can leverage picks to get veterans to fit your vision, that is the correct route. Fever marketing department should have a field day with having 2 attractive blondes on the roster.
Sophie can turn into a livewire. She was under-utilised at Phoenix. Her positions were taken up by cloud and copper.
Spot on bud!! Spot on!!
Sophie = Enforcer!
Great news! I'm so glad Smith is gone! What a nasty person!
Phenomenal news
HIT THE ROAD JACK!!!!! LAZY SMITH!!!
NEVER COME BACK NO MORE!!!!
And Sophie don't take sh-t
If i knew what it feels like winning lotto SOPHIE AND HOWARD IT FEELS GOOD CC YOU HAVE PROTECTION GO GET THEM GIRL make them cry❤
Cunningham is a much stronger and vocal leader than Hull........Cunningham backs down to no one...CC and Sophie play with fire! Something the Fever lacked last year...AB and KM are more laid back....this is a great move
Damn, this season is gonna 🔥
Don't overlook the fact that this keeps Satou from going to NY.
Hopefully CC, or any starter doesn't have to play 38 minutes every game. With this roster they can run for 40 minutes.
Hope I’m wrong but I’m not as positive re Samuelsson’s contribution to the team this year. Samuelsson last year gave zero indication she’ll be better this year-she doesn’t have the legs for up tempo style of offense-when on the court was always trailing on the fast break.

Fever did her a favor by keeping her. Expect Samuelsson, barring injuries to other players, to make the bench her Indiana home.
Fever Bench: Berger, Sophie, Saxton, Dantas, Katie Lou, Start: CC, AB, NH, LH, KM!!!! Championship time. A bench that can outplay most starters.
Sophie and Lexie would probably split time if the roster stays the same.
Cheers indeed!
They can pick up other players during the pre season as teams release all of their draft pics.
The Fever needs to a backup big. Elena would be great she suffers from Lyme disease and really doesn’t need full minutes and would add the playoff experience that would benefit all the young players.Her WNBA experience and stats are impressive. Watch some vids of her ballin.
The Fever FO has knocked FA out of the park so far!
1. Re-signed Kelsey Mitchell
2. Signed Natasha Howard
3. Traded for Sophie Cunningham while
4. Getting rid of Nalyssa “Dijonai’s boo” Smith
They need one markee name (Elena Delle Donne, Dewanna Bonner or an overseas player)
Ding dong the witches are dead😂
SOPHIE BRINGS ENERGY, SHE CAN BALL AND SHES GORGEOUS, JACKPOT ❤️
They got Sophie for 100,000
Two solid veterans added … The Fever is ready
Definitely happy that Sophie is with Indy. 2 enforcers. Now the season need to hurry up and get here
The Fever might win 24 games.
The Fever need one more PF/C type player. Bonner is another SG/SF type player like Lexie and Sophie, so I don't think she is a fit any longer. Katie Lou and Wallace are also the same, with Katie Lou maybe as a small ball PF. Dantas is also a potential PF backup but not really relevant at the 5.
I don't know who they get but they need one more big.
This team is going to be fast paced on BOTH SIDES of the Court
Clark should average about 13 assists a game if not more
What I see is a team that is going to run and run and run. Swapping out players to rest them is going to be easy when they can put another running player in there. Maybe we should change the name to the Indiana Roadrunners - Beep Beep.
From what I understand, Sophie is getting around $100k, so they still have money to get another near max contract player.
LOVE IT! Sophie is just player I was hoping for, one of very few that publicly gave credit to CC. This team will be so fast. Sophie is Lexi 2.0 can’t wait for next season
We finally have a front office and a coach who know wth they’re doing. Can’t wait til the Fever takes the floor again!
It's funny. I was happy for Sophie that she was able to get away from Cloud after they shipped her to Conn. This, is even better! Back to the Midwest! Flyover will welcome Sophie with open arms.
Can’t wait 2025 Fever baby!!
Thank god! Lol
The 8th pick would most likely be a guard. Fever does not need it with Sophie, Hull, and Grace on board.
I do not think they are done. They may have decided that that #8 pick rookie money be better to get another free agent. They want to win now rather then a rookie who may be sitting on the bench.
Sophie for the #8 pick. You know you have experience, defense, physical mentality (enforcer) scoring. Proven player. Veteran locker room presence, Along with Howard. Yea I’m ok with this trade. 100%
Love how you broke Sophie game down
Thanks! I appreciate that!
I'll reserve judgement until I see how well this works. Seems to me the Fever is lacking in Forward skills, not in guard skills: CC, KM, LH, AW, GB, and Wallace. I also hope Victoria Saxton potential receives attention as well as KLS stepping up her game this year.
