The Indiana Fever have made a few significant moves in the offseason to help build off of Caitlin Clark’s WNBA rookie season when the Fever made the playoffs for the first time since 2016.
And on Sunday, they signed another player who played with Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky last year.
After acquiring veteran players during free agency, such as forward DeWanna Bonner, guard Sophie Cunningham, and forward Natasha Howard, the Fever have now signed forward Brianna Turner, according to Chloe Peterson of IndyStar Sports.
“Brianna Turner has signed with the Indiana Fever, per the WNBA transactions page,” Peterson wrote on X. “Some depth for the Fever frontcourt.”
After playing with the Notre Dame Fighting Irish from 2014-2019, Turner was selected with the No. 11 pick in the 2019 WNBA draft by the Atlanta Dream before quickly being traded to the Phoenix Mercury.
Turner spent five seasons with the Mercury alongside Diana Taurasi and Brittney Griner, making two All-Defensive first-teams.
Before the 2024 WNBA draft, where both Clark and Reese started their professional basketball careers, Turner was traded to the Sky in exchange for Kahleah Copper. In her lone season with Chicago, Turner averaged 1.2 points and 2.0 rebounds.
Although her latest statistics don’t pop off the charts, she will be able to provide the Fever with defense and frontcourt depth.

With all the latest moves and the signing of 2023 WNBA Coach of the Year Stephanie White, the Fever have a clear championship goal in 2025.
They have even become one of the favorites to win it all. With the All-Star trio of Clark, Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell returning as well, Indiana could be in the running to win its first title since 2012.
