8 Jul
Summary
- Justine Pissott was released by Indiana Fever but signed with Las Vegas Aces.
- The Indiana Fever have won three of their last four games.
- The team faces a challenging road trip before returning home.
Justine Pissott, initially selected by the Indiana Fever in this year's draft, has found a new team mid-season. She signed a developmental contract with the Fever but was subsequently released, only to immediately reach an agreement with the Las Vegas Aces for the remainder of the current WNBA season.
Her departure was marked by a gathering with Indiana teammates, including Lexie Hull, Sophie Cunningham, and Myisha Hines-Allen, who shared a selfie capturing the farewell. This transition comes as the Indiana Fever are experiencing a strong period, having won three of their last four games and holding a 12-8 record for the season.
The Fever are preparing for a demanding four-game road trip, commencing with a visit to the Los Angeles Sparks. This will be followed by a game against the Phoenix Mercury, and concluding with a matchup against Pissott's new team, the Las Vegas Aces. Following this extensive road stretch, the team is set to return for a four-game homestand at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
