Indiana Fever star Sophie Cunningham has been making waves - and not just for her skills on the basketball court.
The 28-year-old University of Missouri alum shook things up when she was ejected from the June 17 WNBA clash against the Connecticut Sun after throwing a flagrant 2 foul. In defense of Cunningham, it wasn't just any foul. Emotions got high, and it was a bold mood in defense of her friend and teammate Caitlin Clark.
The Fever star has since gained a large following on social media and earned the nickname "The Enforcer" from fans, who seem to be now following her every move, both on and off the court.
Since the incident took place, Cunningham's popularity has skyrocketed, and she now boasts 1.4 million followers on TikTok.
After her team lost to the Seattle Storm earlier in the week, she enjoyed a well-deserved off day on Wednesday to recharge before her game against the Los Angeles Sparks on Thursday.
That same day, she shared a sun-soaked selfie on social media rocking a patterned two-piece bikini paired with a black cowboy hat.
The Fever star captioned the post, "Take me back."
Cunningham joked about running out of clothing
On Wednesday, Cunningham teased that she had nothing to wear in another playful post shared to TikTok.
Rocking a black crop top paired with baggy denim jeans, she wrote, "I've ran out of clothes at this point."
Her long blonde hair was styled down in a casual look in the video.

The post drew plenty of attention, with fans quickly filling up the comment section.
"So are we all hypnotized by the enforcer," one person commented.
"I don't have celebrity crushes... until now," another person wrote.
"most beautiful enforcer any league has ever had," a third person wrote.
Cunningham will take the court again on Friday, June 27, against the Dallas Wings.
