Overview
- The WNBA named Caitlin Clark and Kelsey Mitchell to the 2026 All‑WNBA First Team on October 24, joining A’ja Wilson, Breanna Stewart and rookie Olivia Miles on the league’s top five.
- The Indiana Fever announced major changes to their front office when team president Kelly Krauskopf stepped down and general manager Amber Cox was fired on Friday, leaving the club without its top basketball executives.
- Kelsey Mitchell is an unrestricted free agent after a record scoring season, and retaining her is a top priority for whoever becomes the new general manager.
- Caitlin Clark is eligible for an EPIC contract extension, and the incoming leadership will have to balance that extension, Aliyah Boston’s guaranteed deal and salary‑cap limits when planning the roster.
- The changes raise immediate questions about head coach Stephanie White’s job security, Sophie Cunningham’s free‑agent status after midseason controversy, and how the next regime will publicly position the franchise around Clark.
