The Indiana Fever are a cornerstone franchise of the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA), based in Indianapolis, Indiana. They compete in the Eastern Conference and play their home games at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, sharing the venue with the NBA's Indiana Pacers. Established as one of the league's original eight teams, the Fever's history is defined by resilience and ultimate triumph. The franchise's peak era culminated in a WNBA Championship in 2012, led by the legendary Tamika Catchings, one of the greatest players in league history. That title run cemented the team's place in basketball lore. In the modern era, after a period of rebuilding, the Fever made the landmark selection of generational talent Caitlin Clark with the first overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft, instantly revitalizing the franchise and the league's national profile. The Fever's passionate fan base has supported the team through all its chapters, creating a strong basketball culture in the Hoosier State.
