Nothing like eating steak nuggets at 7 am, Cunningham joked on Instagram, sharing photos of herself posing on the iconic GMA set.

A Rising Star On and Off the Court

Cunningham used her GMA spotlight to hint at what might happen next after her WNBA career, even though her on-air snacking was the main focus. She suggested the idea of becoming a talk show host, a path that fans and even brands believe she’s destined for. She posted a video on X where she playfully recreated GMA’s classic opening introduction.

The clip quickly gained attention, with viewers appreciating her charisma and natural on-camera presence. Even Arby’s chimed in on her post, commenting: “Sophie’s world domination tour continues.” One fan took it a step further, predicting a major media career for the Fever guard: “Sophie, The Five and Gutfeld on Fox News is in your future after a long playing career.

Every network will be bidding for you, as your future is definitely media.” Another viewer joked that Cunningham could even change their viewing habits entirely: “I would watch the news for a change.” With her mix of humor, honesty, and confidence, the idea of Cunningham stepping into television feels more realistic by the day.

A Rising Star On and Off the Court

Cunningham isn’t just entertaining — she’s unafraid to speak her mind. The Indiana Fever star has made headlines throughout the season for her outspoken support of teammates, including rookie phenom Caitlin Clark. Her willingness to be vocal hasn’t always been without consequence; she’s already been fined three times this year for comments and actions that drew league attention.

Still, Cunningham remains unapologetically herself.

She also launched her podcast, Show Me Something, with co-host West Wilson earlier this year. The show gives her a platform to vent, reflect, and dive into discussions about the WNBA and current events — only further expanding her reach in the media world.

Between her growing brand partnerships, her confident on-air personality, and her willingness to connect with fans, Cunningham is quickly becoming one of the WNBA’s most recognizable voices.

Her GMA moment wasn’t just a fun breakfast stunt — it was another sign that Sophie Cunningham is building a future far bigger than basketball, one steak nugget at a time.
