What Indiana Fever staff, players say in exit interviews after 2026 WNBA season
There are key decisions ahead on the Indiana Fever after a first-round playoff exit. Select players and staff speak today in exit interviews.
The Indiana Fever had a successful 2026 season, finishing with a franchise-record 28 wins and securing the sixth seed in the WNBA. However, their championship core of Caitlin Clark, Kelsey Mitchell, and Aliyah Boston fell short in the playoffs, losing to the Las Vegas Aces in a first-round matchup. This disappointing outcome can be attributed to poor roster decisions, lack of depth, and the team's inability to capitalize on crucial tiebreakers.
Despite having three WNBA All-Stars, the Fever struggled down the stretch and were unable to host in the postseason. As the season concludes, the team and its leadership are reflecting on their performance and planning for the upcoming offseason and 2027 season.
