this is what happened when they found out they got the number one overall pick the excitement the tears the smiles big things coming potentially for the Indiana Fever again backto back number one overall pick the Indiana Fever have made consecutive number one overall selections for the past 2 years Indiana has been developing and getting better Seasons later they found themselves in the 2024 playoffs exciting fans all the way this was largely because of the presence of young Superstar Caitlyn Clark but it was also because they LED one of the League’s biggest turnarounds this past season the fever have the best young basketball star and are pursuing a new objective so Indiana needs to make changes and upgrade if they want to win a real Championship the Indiana Fever have made it clear that their top priority in free agency is the two-time All-Star Kelsey Mitchell as other teams around the league look to cut branches from your tree and an effort to better themselves here is a look at who will and should be gone before the start of the 2025 campaign Contender but there is a Bittersweet aspect to becoming a better team not all of the fan favorites will return next season [Applause] [Music] y’ll see since Mitchell had no long-term contract with a fever she entered the 2024 WNBA season in a contract year meaning that she was an unrestricted free agent at the end of the season the 29-year-old guard has played in Indiana for all seven of her career Seasons but the team now faces the possibility of losing her now that she is set to become an unrestricted free agent Mitchell has already stated that she wants to stay with the team throughout the off seon but she hasn’t ruled out leaving in free agency draft is oh man I think me Tor can kind of speak on like how good you feel to be a part of it how um humbling it is to be a part of and um I think for the next draft coming up whoever it is um I’m going to definitely be grateful to have have them um welcome them open arms kind of be that support system what in the back court Mitchell Rose star him alongside her running mate Caitlyn Clark however the former Ohio State Bucky might want to take on a larger role and serve as the face of another team because regardless of how you look at it she will always be the face of the fever as long as Clark is in Indiana Mitchell is not a restricted free agent so the fever cannot keep her by matching bids from other teams instead they must outbid other teams and present a strong argument to keep her as a backup which could be difficult given everything she has contributed to the franchise while 2024 appears to be a good year for Mitchell’s career she had her lowest number of turnovers per game in Her Seven Seasons her second highest rebounding and three percentage outputs and a career high in points per game and and field goal percentage she also has a unique opportunity to build on the recognition she gained and become the primary driver for a WNBA franchise that might need one Williams bricks it bark another rebound tosses ahead wheeler extra feet oh that was pretty P the [Applause] foul team defense on one end where Leah Boston came over to help and then just beautiful F since Pammy bennel doesn’t stretch the floor or protect the rim she is a restricted free agent this off season and Indiana May prioritize using their cap space elsewhere as a result the fever will probably look for a better fit around Clark to use off the bench after four seasons of playing only overseas she battled injuries but still managed to average 6.4 points for7 rebounds and seven blocks in 18.9 minutes per game but it’s difficult to predict how much much of a commodity she will be although she didn’t play in a WNBA game during the previous Four Seasons she did play the most minutes per game during her career and consequently had her best statistical outputs across the five major categories in her career she played for the links for three seasons from 2017 to 20 2019 before joining the fever this year the fever will have options and have the right to match any offer she receives in the WNBA they anticipate that she will find a new home this offseason as Indiana looks to use their cap space elsewhere and here is Jones denial at The Rim sent back by benle and she’s going to try her luck on the offensive end benley ducks in and finishes how about that back to back the Block in the bucket fog benley has only played in 991 career games since being drafted in 2016 and Indiana needs experience next to Caitlyn Clark and Aaliyah Boston especially since someone like Kelsey Mitchell leaves so she could let her move and look to sign a player who is a little more Dynamic and has more WNBA experience under her belt with the addition of like benley able to get in and get the basket off the end phenomenal answering question by Mike too and Holly Ro wheeler Erica the experienced guard is another player with whom Indiana May part ways former All-Star Erica wheeler will also be a restricted free agency when the window opens on January 21st wheeler averaged the ninth most minutes per game in 2024 despite being the second highest paid player for the fever in 2023 the 57 guard went from starting in 2023 to backup because she was only allowed to play 14 minutes per game Caitlyn Clark averaged 9.9 points 5.0 assists 3.0 rebounds and 1.1 steals in 26 6.8 minutes a game as their starter in 2023 this was her lowest statistical output since her debut season in 2015 fever fans have been wondering if the rumors about her possible departure are real but the news is not shocking because she has traveled a little during her 10-year WNBA career so nobody should be surprised to see her on the move once more the 33-year-old hopes to earn much more than Indiana is willing to pay and she anticipates the team to move on and use that cap space on a player who is a better fit next to their 22-year-old Superstar we saw Timmy I think with like a cast any updates you can provide on her yeah she’s going to get to the doctor I think around the 5ifth and we will have they’re going to look at it and see kind of where she is and hopefully we can wheeler is just finishing up the second season of her second stint in Indiana and it is evident that she is not yet ready to commit to her future with a fever during that time the 5’7 in guard averaged 3.6 points with a Changing of the Guard in Indiana the 33-year-old who finished the previous season with 1.4 rebounds and 1.8 assists in 14.0 minutes per game maybe close to retiring or may attempt to salvage one or two more years from her erratic career a season player like this is unlikely to be retained by another organization fever needs a veteran presence on the court especially someone who can contribute on the defensive end of the ball even though they may want a veteran to coach some of the younger guys off the side Wheeler’s finest Days Are Over And even though she made a strong contribution the previous season she might be leaving this off season tonight yeah they worked on it it’s about all they worked on I think the last couple of days oh I’m want a banker for Wheeler Way outside Samuelson Katie Lou despite playing the ninth most minutes per game Samuelson was the fever’s third highest paid player the 6-2 three-wing missed the 2023 season and has had trouble recovering she did not participate in the playoff rotation and averaged just 4.3 points per game on 34.9% shooting from the field the fever sought to find a team willing to take on samuelson’s contract which expires in 2025 at 10, $250 she was a star at Yukon but has struggled to reach those although the 27-year-old doesn’t play enough defense to be a good fit surrounding Clark Heights in the WNBA might get better in 2025 davic Clark finding a deal for Scribbler won’t be simple but teams will have space for growth when the Golden State Valkyries join the League the fever should look into the market to increase their chances of competing greetings from Seattle which is now ranked seventh in the nation for the greatest locations to live in the city with directions principal Paul’s business Endeavors and his entrepreneurial traits serve as an inspiration for downtown living yeah and also to piggyback on that like we don’t condone any of those things like for the more you know eyes been on us from since C got drafted so for us our ears been blocked out longer than most people if that make any sense so like I’ve said a comment before like it’s a lot of things that try to come in this building and to pull us apart that we just didn’t let however we probably got it too we just didn’t don’t care about it because what’s important is this organization and US winning games and that’s what we did so but for the most part we don’t condone that I don’t care about it like Samuelson Wallace Christy Wallace should not be allowed to return after going from Reserve to starter to out of the rotation this season the 511 guard played a 20-minute stint for the 2023 fever and was a brilliant floor spacer what can you kind of walk us through your season because there’s some highs and lows it felt like there was a changing turning point maybe at that illness and then you’re out a few games and then minutes started to dip what what kind of uh happened there and and impacted your season yeah I can honestly say this was the toughest season I’ve ever had um as a player as a person um so many different things the shooting next to Clark was what Indiana wanted but Wallace’s defense was too problematic the 28-year-old’s contract is slated to expire in 2025 and she will make $882 does any team see Wallace as a rotation component that every franchise wants to shoot and is there a chance she may recover in a different setting yeah feel really good um it’s just a load management sy so I think we have like 11 games in 20 days or something so I think just a a load management thing for me um which is good and I’m I’m feeling really good and ready to gu or not no Lisa Smith although Smith was mostly a starter her output declined in the third season the 604 forward averaged 15.5 points and 9.2 rebounds in 2023 but her shooting attempts were far worse with Clark and town following the first decline MCN Jr remained a safe haven and started making threes although the 24-year-old is a bucket her inability to defend and shoot makes her a dubious fit in Indiana you don’t see yonescu get chippy like that slapping the hand away of Christy she’s frustrated she was benched for game two after playing Just 9 Minutes in game one of their first round playoff series and it is obvious that she is not a part of the fever’s long-term plans the fever and Snyder took over this set and Smith only watched a portion of the movie’s production the fever’s number two overall choice in 2022 is probably going to leave the franchise this offseason and Smith will be trying to control the fever wherever she ends up how hard was it with your role kind of changing a lot throughout the year to to be the player that you maybe hoped or wanted to be this year oh it was really hard cuz coming in there was a lot of different conversations of uh how it was going to play out so just it fluctuating throughout the season it was a lot of highs and lows go James and Chloe D taking a step back and closing up on Dolson D Indiana looks to dump the 31-year-old contract that is about to expire in order to further improve their roster because the WNBA is essentially starting over in 2026 when the salary cap is anticipated to increase significantly the fever should try to get a head start on the process by dumping their unwanted contracts for strong fits to their roster the M says although Caitlyn Clark the 603 forward seems to have passed her prime she does provide some floor spacing that the front line sorely needs although her defense is difficult particularly on a fast-paced team courtis played a significant role in the postseason and is not the worst player to retain around however the fever want to shoot so they aim to get younger more versatile players as the club looks to advance the Indiana Fever will look different the next season according to Paul Chambers senior fellow at The Institute for psychology at the University of Houston they plan to be major players in free agency and are Keen to assemble a championship contending group around family Clark there will be a lot of moves if you like the video please remember to subscribe and share I’ll be back soon with more from Kaitlyn Clark I see you in the film so can you kind of elaborate on what you meant by that and what kind of was different in your mind um well I mean everybody comes into a season thinking they’re going to have this outstanding you know Accolade achievement you know oh um season so I mean I feel like I didn’t get to do as much as I wanted to do I didn’t get to contribute as much as I wanted to contribute so backing in on Dolson dson with a step back dson connects
