Fever Stars Compete in AU Pro Basketball

The Indiana Fever's offseason is proving to be a busy period for its players after their successful 2025 playoff campaign. Superstar Caitlin Clark has made her return to basketball with USA Basketball after recovering from a groin injury sustained last season. Many other Fever players are honing their skills in overseas leagues to maintain their competitive edge.

Key players Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell are currently making a splash in Miami's Unrivaled 3-on-3 league. Furthermore, the WNBA recently announced a broadcast partnership with AU Pro Basketball, a league that will feature several Indiana Fever athletes in its fifth season, commencing February 4th in Nashville. This collaboration ensures fans can follow their favorite players throughout the offseason.

Five members of the 2025 Indiana Fever roster—Bree Hall, Shey Peddy, Aerial Powers, Brianna Turner, and Odyssey Sims—are slated to play in the 2026 AU Pro Basketball season. Veteran guard Sydney Colson, whose season was cut short by an ACL tear, has taken on a new role. She has joined the AU Pro Basketball player executive committee and will also be part of the broadcast team, providing analysis for games involving her Indiana teammates. All 24 games will be accessible via ESPN and the WNBA app.

Colson expressed her enthusiasm for remaining involved despite her injury. "AU has been such a special place to me as a player and now I'm excited to join Sheryl, Cindy, and Kevin on our broadcast team and hopefully make season five the best one yet," she stated. She will be working alongside comedian Kevin Barnett, as well as returning commentators Cindy Brunson and WNBA legend Sheryl Swoopes. The AU Pro Basketball league features a unique weekly redrafting system, with individual player scores tracked to determine the season's champion.
