Sophie Cunningham has watched as the No. 6 seed Indiana Fever has pulled off a surprising run in the 2025 WNBA playoffs, but she hasn’t been quiet during this run.

The Indiana Fever star, who recently wore a bikini while in her leg brace, was back on the sidelines for Game 3. The Fever were hoping to take a commanding 2-1 lead against the Vegas Aces.

Unfortunately, it was not meant to be. The Aces beat the short-handed Indiana Fever 84-72 on Friday night in Game 3 of a best-of-five WNBA semifinal series. The Indiana Fever did not make a shot in nearly nine minutes in this game, and it would come back to bite them heavily.

Also, during this game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, Cunningham and Caitlin Clark would find themselves going viral while on the bench.

Footage from a fan in the stands showed the animated duo on the sidelines complaining to the refs.

Both Sophie Cunningham and Clark called for replay assistance on a play. At the same time, one Fever coach could be seen telling them to get back from the court.

Another coach came over to calm them down, but they both would not listen.

Cunningham was worse in her attitude as she completely disrespected her coach.

Cunningham is out for the season due to a torn MCL.

The Indiana Fever and Las Vegas Aces semifinal series has already been tense on the court, and a player who is not playing has made it even more so.

Speaking on her Show Me Something podcast, Fever guard Sophie Cunningham blasted Aces forward Wilson for dismissing Indiana’s Game 1 upset. She stated it was just a bad night on her part instead of giving credit to her opponent.

“The Aces gave us no credit,” Cunningham said.

“They had their media the next day, and they gave us no credit. Especially A’ja, she’s like, ‘Oh I just played bad.’ I’m like, dude, AB had you in clamps, my girl.”

Aliyah Boston held her to 16 points on 6-of-22 shooting as the Fever walked away with a shocking victory.

Things went her way in Game 2. Wilson poured in 25 points, nine rebounds, and five steals, and the Aces managed to even the series out with a 90-68 rout.

A game 3 victory now has the Fever down 2-1 in the series.

Luka Doncic ‘destroys’ the Mavs on his return. Gets standing ovation and shows love to Mark Cuban

Luka Doncic hits 45 points in his first game in Dallas since being traded to the Los Angeles.

It’s rare for a home crowd to cheer the visiting team, but Luka Doncic’s return to Dallas was no ordinary night.

Just days before February’s trade deadline, the Mavericks shocked the NBA by sending their 26-year-old superstar to the Lakers—a move that outraged fans and sparked backlash toward GM Nico Harrison.

On Wednesday, Doncic played his first game back in Dallas since the trade. The arena was filled with fans in both his old Mavs and new Lakers jerseys, many chanting “Fire Nico” in protest.

Despite the emotion in the air, Doncic delivered a dominant performance, scoring a game-high 45 points to lead the Lakers to a 112-97 win. It was a powerful return for one of the league’s brightest stars—and a night Dallas won’t soon forget

The Mavericks pay tribute to Luka Dončić

While the Mavericks’ decision to trade Luka Doncic remains heavily criticized, they handled his return to Dallas with undeniable grace. The organization made sure his first game back as a Laker was met with respect and appreciation.

Every seat in the arena was draped with a T-shirt reading “Hvala za vse,” which translates from Slovenian to “thank you for everything.” It was a thoughtful nod to Doncic’s heritage and impact on the franchise.

Before tip-off, during the starting lineup announcements, the Mavericks played a tribute video showcasing some of Doncic’s most iconic moments in a Dallas jersey. The emotional gesture clearly resonated—moving Doncic to tears in front of the crowd that once called him their own.

Luka Doncic ‘DESTROYS’ his old team

Luka delivered a dazzling performance against his former team, putting up 45 points on 16-of-28 shooting, including 7-of-10 from beyond the arc. He also added 8 rebounds, 6 assists, and 4 steals in a game that showed exactly why he’s one of the best in the league.

From the opening tip, Doncic was locked in. By halftime, Doncic had racked up 31 points on 11-of-16 shooting in just 19 minutes—marking the 10th time in his career he’s scored 30 or more in a single half.

Though his scoring slowed in the second half, he continued to lead effectively, securing both a Lakers win and an unforgettable showing for the fans in Dallas.
