Fever star Sophie Cunningham’s personal update causes a stir

Sophie Cunningham and the Indiana Fever are amid the WNBA’s FIBA World Cup break. It provides them with extra rest and time to spend with family, as well as more practices ahead of the playoffs.

The break is much needed as she and the Fever are coming ofd five games played in 10 days. The good news is they went 3-2, including back-to-back wins over the Chicago Sky and Connecticut Sun. Cunningham and Co. are 26-14 for the season and currently in fifth place. They are one game behind for third and are looking to end the regular season strong and earn a higher playoff seed.

Fans reacted in the comments section.

“It’s good when you know where your food came from, ‘from farm~to fork,’” a user wrote.

“Nothing like a cow raised on grass! Mmmmm Beef!” posted another.

“You don’t know good beef till you try good local free range beef. It’s not venison, but way better than the plastic wrapped crap found in stores,” one comment read.

“Nothing beats farm to table regardless the cut!” a fan said.

“Nothing is better than farm raised beef locally! We have a sweet little market in our little town that only sells from local farms and it is phenomenal!” another user commented.

“there’s something about knowing exactly where your food came from that just hits different, the store stuff can never compete,” a reaction read.

Cunningham and the Fever will play their next game on Sept. 18 against the Toronto Tempo. They have four matchups left on their schedule and are competing with the Las Vegas Aces and Atlanta Dream for a top-three finish.
