On the bright side, Cunningham didn't get injured, nor did anyone else. However, the situation has escalated, which needs to be looked at by the WNBA. As Cunningham mentioned on Friday, it could cause a serious injury when players are in action.

It was a rough night overall for Cunningham, who had a subpar outing in a 100-91 five-game winning-streak ending loss. She scored only eight points, shooting 3 of 7 and was a +/- -11. Cunningham entered the contest on a high after tallying double-digit scores in nine of the last 11 games, but she couldn't get going in Tuesday's loss.

Nevertheless, the Fever remain in a comfortable spot in the standings, with a 17-13 record in fifth place. They face the Phoenix Mercury on Thursday at Cunningham's old stomping grounds for the first time since her trade to the Fever.

Sophie Cunningham will look forward to having a winning impact in Phoenix and get the Fever back on track as they continue this stretch in Caitlin Clark's absence.
