Sophie Cunningham Expresses Her Feelings on Transitioning to a “Team of Winners”
In a press interview during the Indiana Fever’s training camp, Sophie Cunningham gave her honest opinion on the new team she would play for this 2025 season, and how she feels playing for “a team of winners.”
“That’s what they were doing in the offseason, they’re trying to get winners, people who know how to compete, people who want to win and put that together with experience, people who have championships,” Cunningham said.
“When you have that type of combination and us young bucks… you’re just trying to be a sponge. You’re trying to learn,” she added. “That’s why you have those vets. They’ve been around the game for a really long time, and that’s kind of the refreshing part about being on this team. Everybody wants to learn, so everyone is dialed in.”
