Indiana Fever Training Camp Preview: Roster, Preseason Games, and Season Outlook
The Indiana Fever are gearing up for their upcoming training camp, which is set to kick off on April 19 at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse. The team has finalized its training camp roster, consisting of 16 players vying for 14 spots on the team.
During the offseason, the Fever made significant moves, including improving the salaries of key players like Caitlin Clark, Aliyah Boston, and Makayla Timpson. They also re-signed familiar faces such as Kelsey Mitchell, Sophie Cunningham, Lexie Hull, and Damiris Dantas.
In addition to retaining core players, the Fever added new talent to their roster, including three rookies from the 2026 WNBA Draft and four veterans from free agency. They also signed two players with connections to Indiana on training camp deals.
The official training camp roster includes guards like Caitlin Clark, Kelsey Mitchell, and forwards such as Sophie Cunningham, Monique Billings, and centers Aliyah Boston and Damiris Dantas. The team is set to compete in three preseason games starting on April 25 against the New York Liberty.
The Fever face a tough challenge in the preseason matchups, especially against teams like the New York Liberty and the Dallas Wings, who have bolstered their rosters with top talent. Despite the competition, the Fever are entering the season with high expectations following their impressive run to the WNBA semifinals last year.
Coach Stephanie White emphasized the importance of managing Caitlin Clark's workload during training camp to ensure she is ready for the upcoming season. The team aims to build Clark's fitness gradually to prepare her for the demanding 44-game season ahead.
The Fever's first game of the 2026 WNBA season is scheduled for May 9 against the Dallas Wings at home. With a mix of experienced players and promising newcomers, the Fever are poised to make a strong start to the season and build on their previous success.
