Overview

  • Sydney Colson tore her left ACL against the Phoenix Mercury on August 7, ruling her out for the rest of the season.
  • Aari McDonald broke a bone in her right foot later in the same game and will also miss the remainder of the campaign.
  • Caitlin Clark has now missed nine straight contests with a groin strain and has no clear timetable for a return.
  • League rules prohibit the Fever from adding a hardship player until after they play Saturday’s game, leaving them with just nine available players.
  • With the trade deadline passed, Indiana must look to free agency to shore up its backcourt and protect its spot in the playoff race.
