Those fears were confirmed on Tuesday with the team announcing guard Sophie Cunningham is out for the season with a right knee injury suffered in the second quarter of the Fever's stirring 99-93 overtime win against the Connecticut Sun.

The Indiana Fever's injury-plagued season continued Sunday when guard Sophie Cunningham had to be helped off the floor with a right knee injury early in the team's historic comeback win over the Connecticut Sun. Fever coach Stephanie White did not have an immediate update on Cunningham, who will undergo an MRI on Monday.
