“Compete For Fans That May or May Not Like You Is Hard”: Free Agent Kelsey Mitchell Reveals Thoughts About Her Fever Future
- On Thursday, Oct. 1, the Indiana Fever were eliminated from the playoffs after losing Game 3 to the Las Vegas Aces 94-83, ending their 2026 season.
- Guard Kelsey Mitchell will become an unrestricted free agent this offseason after setting a league scoring record with 1,086 points and losing core-eligibility following the first-round exit.
- Caitlin Clark is eligible for an EPIC contract extension, while Indiana Fever general manager Amber Cox must navigate a projected $7.91 million salary cap for 2027.
- Cox emphasized that keeping the core trio—Mitchell, Clark, and Aliyah Boston—together is the organization's goal, calling Mitchell a "major priority" for retention.
- Mitchell plans to explore the open market for the first time, leaving uncertainty about whether the Fever can match competitive supermax offers she will likely command.
