Indiana Fever not expected to defend title in 2026
The Indiana Fever are the 2025 WNBA Commissioner’s Cup champions. However, most WNBA general managers do not expect them to reach the Finals this year, let alone defend their title in the in-season tournament.
Sophie Cunningham is set to begin her eighth WNBA season in 2026 as the Indiana Fever open up against Paige Bueckers and the Dallas Wings on Saturday afternoon. Cunningham will also be entering her second year with Indiana after spending her first six with the Phoenix Mercury, resigning with the Fever on a one-year, $665,000 deal.
