The Indiana Fever (18-16) hit the road in hopes of stopping a losing skid when they visit the Connecticut Sun (6-26) today, August 17. The Fever are seventh in the WNBA playoff standings while the Sun have the league's worst record.

Sophie Cunningham was helped off the court in the second quarter of Indiana’s game against the Connecticut Sun after Bria Hartley fell into her leg. Cunningham was in visible pain as she clutched her knee before she was helped off the court and to the locker room. The Fever quickly announced she would return to the game.

Early in the second quarter, Cunningham slid over on the baseline to provide help against Sun guard Bria Hartley, who threw a pass to the corner that was picked off by Lexie Hull. After getting rid of the ball, Hartley fell down and crashed into Cunningham's right leg.
