Sophie Cunningham played her part for the Indiana Fever on Wednesday night against the Golden State Valkyries. The 6-foot-1 guard came off the bench to register 10 points on 3-of-7 shooting with two three-pointers. Her defense was on full display, too, with Cunningham logging four steals in 27 minutes of action.
It still wasn’t enough, though, as the Fever suffered a disappointing 88-75 loss. Golden State snapped Indiana’s two-game winning streak as the Fever dropped to 14-10 on the season. As of this writing, they are sixth in the standings, tied with the Atlanta Dream.

It only got worse for Cunningham. On Thursday, she took to social media to share an update on how bad her day went after the previous night’s loss.
For starters, the 29-year-old ended up getting the wrong color of nail polish after getting her nails done. This was the least of her concerns, though, as Cunningham was also involved in a minor accident.
“Went to Arby’s right after,” she relayed in an Instagram story. “I was literally getting my food from over here (in the drive-thru), and all of a sudden I get nailed on this side. Some lady drove over a parking block and a sidewalk.
“Whatever. Bad days happen. I was like, you know, it’s all good.”
The good news is that Cunningham is fine. Based on her story, it appeared to be nothing more than a minor fender bender.
That wasn’t the end of it, though. The Fever star revealed that she found a strand of hair on her food from Arby’s, which, incidentally, is a brand that she endorses.
Finally, the eight-year veteran shared that she had to return to Target to have the anti-theft security tag removed from a shirt she had purchased two months ago.

It doesn’t seem like Cunningham sustained any injury from her accident. She should be back on the court on Saturday when the Fever look to bounce back against the Seattle Storm. It will be a home game for Indiana, with tipoff from Gainbridge Fieldhouse scheduled for 7:30 p.m. ET.
