Home is where the heart is, especially when you get hit with an inappropriate toy at a WNBA game.

Sophie Cunningham returned to her happy place in Phoenix, where it looks like the Indiana Fever star still owns a home after getting traded from the Phoenix Mercury last offseason.

In what can probably best be described as a cathartic TikTok dance, the 28-year-old Caitlin Clark enforcer and 3-point specialist does an at-home solo dance party in front of the camera.

As you can tell, it looks like Cunningham was unwinding after she was hit with the said inappropriate toy during the Fever's loss to the Los Angeles Sparks last night, 100-91. The WNBA Commissioner's Cup Champion handled it superbly, and given her self-deprecating nature, it was no surprise she made fun of herself after the game.

The former Mizzou standout wrote on her Instagram Stories, "no way that thing actually hit me. I knew I shouldn't have tweeted that."

What she had tweeted last week was, "stop throwing d****s on the court... you're going to get one of us hurt."

Luckily she wasn't hurt, and Cunningham shared on her IG Stories today her baller pool back home in Phoenix, luckily having an off day.

Her TikTok handle reads, "probs at the pool kickin it."

That's what she was doing with "Tres Leches" teammate Lexie Hull yesterday before the incident in Los Angeles, and again today at her house.

Her happy place. Well deserved.
