Fever lose third point guard in 10 days to season-ending injury
Sophie Cunningham suffered a right knee injury and is now sidelined for the rest of the season, along with guards Sydney Colson and Aari McDonald.
Sophie Cunningham’s season is over.
The 6-foot-1 guard suffered a season-ending injury to her right knee early in the Indiana’s Fever’s 99-93 win in overtime at Connecticut on Sunday.
The team announced the news Tuesday afternoon on what was a recovery day for the team. They took Monday off and have four days between games, next set to host the Minnesota Lynx on Friday.
Cunningham underwent an MRI on Monday, which confirmed an MCL tear, a league source told Fieldhouse Files. As I said in my postgame video report, it appeared to be an injury to her MCL, not her ACL.
