The Indiana Fever are in the midst of an extended break between games. They last saw action on Saturday, defeating the Los Angeles Sparks in a blowout at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, 111-87. They have seven days off before they return to the court. On Sunday, they face a tough test against the defending champions, the Las Vegas Aces, in a road game at T-Mobile Arena.

Caitlin Clark has grabbed headlines for the Fever of late. She was involved in a controversial incident in their game against the Phoenix Mercury, which ultimately led to a one-game suspension for Alyssa Thomas. Clark also suffered an injury in that game, forcing her to sit out Saturday’s matchup against the Sparks.

Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark (22) talks to Indiana Fever guard Kelsey Mitchell (0).

Indiana Fever: Kelsey Mitchell, Lexie Hull news announced on Monday

It wasn’t Clark who took center stage on Monday, though. This time around, Kelsey Mitchell and Lexie Hull took the spotlight as major news about both players emerged.

Mitchell made a big career move on Monday. She is now no longer a sneaker free agent after Puma announced that the three-time All-Star is the brand’s latest endorser. Mitchell joins Indiana Pacers superstar Tyrese Haliburton as one of Puma’s most prominent signature athletes.

Hull did not sign with a sportswear brand. However, the 26-year-old expanded her portfolio outside of basketball with a major investment. It was previously announced that Hull had joined the ownership group of League One Volleyball San Francisco (LOVB SF), a professional women’s volleyball team that is set to debut in January 2027.

News of Hull’s big move resurfaced on Monday after USA Sports shared the development on Instagram. Hull also shared the trending news on her Instagram stories.

Hull continues to make waves off the court. Her latest investment comes after she launched her own makeup brand, FORTA Cosmetics, in March.

As for their basketball, Mitchell remains a key cog for the Fever this season. She is averaging 21.6 points, 1.5 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 2.5 triples per game.

Hull, on the other hand, continues to contribute on both ends of the floor. The 6-foot-2 guard has started 16 out of Indiana’s 19 games this season and is considered one of the best defenders on the squad.
