Sophie Cunningham's twerking goes viral after Fever wins Commissioner's Cup

Nobody was more excited when the Indiana Fever won the Commissioner’s Cup than WNBA star Sophie Cunningham.

The WNBA team made franchise history when they beat the Minnesota Lynx 74-59 in the 2025 Commissioner’s Cup Final on Tuesday, July 1.

After the big win, the attention quickly turned to Cunningham, 28, during the post-game celebrations.

In a viral video posted to X, the blonde bombshell WNBA star could be seen turning her back to the camera and twerking low during her teammate Sydney Colson’s livestream, igniting a firestorm on social media.

Some fans praised her celebratory dance, with one fan commenting on X, “Now this is how you get WNBA viewership up.”

Another person wrote, “We’re here for it!”

Someone else said, “Sophie giving the fans what they all wanted.”

At the same time, others didn’t love it.

“Oh, you think you’ve seen some moves? That’s cute. I’ve seen better crossover plays in a kindergarten playground. Keep practicing, and maybe one day you’ll be ready for the big leagues,” one person wrote on X.

“Yet they want us to take the WNBA seriously,” someone else wrote.

“Nothing shaking,” a third person said.

“She should never do it again,” another person commented.

This isn’t the first time Cunningham has gone viral in recent weeks.

The University of Missouri standout also made waves on June 17 when she was ejected from the WNBA Fever clash against the Connecticut Sun.

During the game, Cunningham threw a flagrant 2 foul in defense of her teammate Caitlin Clark.

Since the incident, her popularity has skyrocketed on social media.
