Kelsey Mitchell is reportedly finalizing a one-year supermax deal worth $1.4 million to return to the Indiana Fever, as confirmed by ESPN’s Chiney Ogwumike. Coming off a breakout season where she averaged 20.2 points and 3.4 assists, Mitchell earned her first All-WNBA First Team selection. The 30-year-old guard played a crucial role in leading the Fever to the WNBA semifinals and winning the Commissioner’s Cup, especially during a season where Caitlin Clark was sidelined due to injuries. Clark, her backcourt teammate, expressed a strong desire for Mitchell's return, emphasizing the importance of retaining their core players. Mitchell has spent her entire eight-year career with the Fever after being selected as the No. 2 overall pick in the 2018 WNBA Draft.
