Sophie Cunningham took to TikTok on Friday, July 11 to share her ethos, kicking off a video montage with a stunning summer look.
Wearing strappy stilettos, she arrives to play ball in her shortest shorts yet, and a bralette under a sheer white button-up top with purple accents.
“Work hard, pray hard, and maybe party hard?” she captioned the share.
After her Game Day arrival look, the Indiana Fever star guard, 28, drinks champagne out of the Commissioner’s Cup after the Fever’s big championship win over the defending Minnesota Lynx.

“I’m praying,” quipped a second, “that Fever will have more wins, go to the playoffs and hopefully get the championship so you and the team can party harder. Love you, Sohie!”
“My kind of enforcer,” raved a third. Cunningham’s TikTok following has sky-rocketed from 300,000 to more than 1.5 million since her now-famous protective moves against the Connecticut Sun in retaliation against an earlier hard foul on her teammate and friend Caitlin Clark. This solidified her “Enforcer” nickname.
The Missouri native played with the Phoenix Mercury from 2019 to 2025. Since being traded to the Fever, she has become fast friends with superstar Clark, 23, and a third star player, Lexie Hull, 25. Cunningham seemingly enjoys the limelight, often showing up in stunning, eye-popping looks for Game Day.
