WNBA star Sophie Cunningham has sent fans wild on social media after posing in a skimpy outfit to celebrate a huge victory for her old college Missouri.
Cunningham, who recently wrapped up her sixth season with the Phoenix Mercury, shared the racy post to her 60,000 followers on X after the Missouri Tigers men’s team sealed a 76-67 win over the Kansas Tigers on Sunday.
The 28-year-old Missouri graduate posed in a stunning navy bodysuit embellished at the top and wrote as the caption: ‘now that I have your attention….. MIZ-FkU **plays Mr. Brightside all day**’.
After the abbreviated dig at their opponents – with ‘FkU’ standing for f*** Kansas University – Cunningham referenced the famous song by The Killers which was played throughout Sunday’s game at Mizzou Arena.
But fans were simply mesmerized by the picture of her revealing bodysuit.
One user replied: ‘Oh my lord’.

Another posted: ‘Omg. Might be hottest pic I’ve ever seen. Sophie is most beautiful player in W[NBA] by a mile.’
‘Gorgeous,’ concluded a third.
While one quipped: ‘Gonna leave this pic on my phone so long it gets a screen burn’.
Earlier this week, Cunningham was involved in major controversy after WNBA fans claimed she took part in a ‘racist’ photoshoot with Mercury teammate Kahleah Copper.
During the league’s offseason, Phoenix carried out a shoot with three of their players to build some excitement after fixtures for the 2025 campaign were released earlier in the week.
The marketing stunt involved the duo and fellow guard Natasha Cloud performing some bizarre poses together while dressed in matching black roll-neck sweaters, light-blue jeans and white socks – yet one of the poses caused major controversy.
The photo in question showed Cunningham sitting on Copper as her African American teammate laid on the floor with her feet up, which led to accusations of racism online.
