Sophie Cunningham's Dream Business Involves a Yacht and a WNBA Legend

Sophie Cunningham has been making waves on the court with the Indiana Fever, and her stock is definitely rising.

Just this week, Cunningham passed 4 million followers on Instagram, showing that she has a massive fanbase watching her every move.

Cunningham also has some passions off the court. That's what's fun about seeing these sports stars interviewed about their lives outside of basketball. Because, even the top-level players in the WNBA have a life off the court.

Sophie Cunningham Has Party-Happy Business Idea with Diana Taurasi

If Cunningham could start a dream business outside the WNBA, what would the business entail and who would be her ideal partner in that business?

In a clip shared on X by Front Office Sports, Cunningham reveals just that.

"If you were going to start a business with another WNBA player, who would it be?" she's asked in the clip.

"I like that," she says in response to the question.

After thinking about it for a minute, she says that her business would be with former WNBA star Diana Taurasi and involve a yacht.

Why Taurasi? It's simple. "Because she has the finances," Cunningham explains.

"And then, the business would be being on a yacht, on a boat, on a lake or on the ocean, drinks flowing, you're getting a nice tan. But, definitely, budget, not mine."

The interviewer says, "You guys can start your own 'Below Deck?'"

"I like that," she says, laughing. "Absolutely."

Consider it a "party with WNBA stars" type of package. Or, perhaps she could launch an annual themed cruise where WNBA fans party with their favorite players. Regardless, for now, it's best that she's sticking to the court, because that's a pretty wild business idea.

Sophie Cunningham Recently Added a Fresh Endorsement Deal

Cunningham did recently launch a business venture in the form of a new endorsement deal. She has teamed up with Once Upon a Coconut, a premium coconut water brand, for a fresh partnership.

The WNBA star and Once Upon a Coconut announced the news in a joint Instagram post. She's given the brand her stamp of approval for a delicious and nutritious way to stay hydrated while she's on the court and in her daily life. Coincidentally, coconut water would be a good item to have on Sophie's cruise, too.
