- The team has added veteran guard Odyssey Sims on a hardship contract to address its point-guard shortage.
- Caitlin Clark has resumed full-court running with her body weight but remains off the practice floor without a return date.
- Kelsey Mitchell, Sophie Cunningham and Lexie Hull absorbed primary ball-handling duties in a 92-70 win over Chicago that kept Indiana at 18-14.
