Sophie Cunningham had a special guest for Indiana Fever game

Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham had quite a busy weekend. On Saturday, she made her debut as a ring girl for the co-main event of UFC 329 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The following night, she was back to her day job, helping the Fever on the court.

If there was any doubt about Cunningham’s extracurricular activity getting in the way of her basketball, the 29-year-old put it all to rest with a big-time performance for Indiana. She went off for 20 points on six triples, helping the Fever secure a 109-75 blowout win against the Las Vegas Aces.

Cunningham caught fire in front of a packed crowd at Michelob ULTRA Arena. She turned in one of her best outings of the season in front of a very special guest.

Sitting courtside for the Fever-Aces game on Sunday night was UFC President and CEO Dana White. The MMA icon even wore a shirt featuring Cunningham’s face to show his support.

After the game, the two were seen catching up and sharing a laugh.

Cunningham and White have become pals of late. On Saturday after the fight, White revealed that Cunningham’s stint as a ring girl was not planned in advance. The 6-foot-1 guard just asked if she could do it minutes before the event, and White just gladly obliged.

Cunningham and the Fever are now back in Indianapolis following their eventful four-game road trip. They will return to action on Wednesday to host the Golden State Valkyries. Tipoff from Gainbridge Fieldhouse is at 8:00 p.m. ET.
