Indiana Fever fans react to 2026 WNBA Draft haul
Yahoo! NewsImage: Yahoo! News
Following the conclusion of the 2026 WNBA draft in New York City on April 13, many Indiana Fever fans voiced their collective opinions on social media about the franchise's choices for their three draft selections. To recap, the Fever selected South Carolina guard Raven Johnson at No. 10 overall, followed by Vanderbilt guard Justine Pissott at No. 25, and Alabama guard Jessica Timmons at No. 40. While the Fever certainly added depth to their backcourt, many Fever fans were less than thrilled by general manager Amber Cox's decisions. However, only time will tell if those comments hold merit with the regular season just a few weeks away. Here are some of the most notable social media reactions to the Fever's draft night haul: Is this real?!? lol π are we joking? β WNBA Update Central (@Update_Centrals) April 14, 2026 Not another Stephanie White and Fever FO Masterclass.... β Evelyn DR (@prettygirle2004) April 14, 2026 As a Fever Fan I say, some Fever fans are loonies.. β Bette (@Avalon13Myst) April 14, 2026 Yeaaaaaa RAVEN!!!!
