Meanwhile, Cunningham is expected to play a key role for the Indiana Fever in the upcoming 2025 WNBA season. Her ability to hit shots from beyond the arc, combined with her tough defense, will offer the Fever a crucial spark off the bench.

"She has changed our game in the best possible way…I want her to go do her thing and anything she needs from me I’m gonna be here…I stick up for my teammates. I stick up for myself," Cunningham said.

Cunningham has already started training with the Fever, even though the WNBA season is still more than two months away. She will make her debut in a Fever uniform on May 17, when the team faces the Chicago Sky in the season opener.
