During Sunday’s win, star Fever wing Sophie Cunningham sustained an injury early in the contest, playing just 10 minutes. She has been a pivotal part of Indiana’s offense and defense this year, averaging 8.6 points and 1.0 steals per game.

As if the Indiana Fever needed another injury to a star player, but they got one on Sunday when guard Sophie Cunningham went down with a brutal-looking knee injury. Her mom and sister took to social media after to blast the WNBA, its refs, and the player involved in the injury.

Sophie Cunningham celebrated her 29th birthday with the help of her Indiana Fever teammates. She joined the team in January.

Darcy Connolly-Brunner, 61, was struck when Rolando Ico-Choc, a 30-year-old Guatemalan national, crossed over into the wrong lane in Freeport on Saturday afternoon, the Stephenson County Sheriff’s office said. The migrant, who had a hefty rap sheet including multiple prior DUIs, was also killed in the wreck, according to officials.

In the wake of the knee injury the Fever guard suffered on Sunday, Cunningham's sister, Lindsey, posted a tweet criticizing the WNBA for not protecting its players. Another social media user later re-shared Lindsey's tweet with a video of Sophie committing a flagrant foul attached...as well as a pointed message of the user's own.
