The Indiana Fever faced a significant setback in the WNBA as both guards Sydney Colson and Aari McDonald will miss the remainder of the 2025 season due to injuries. This unfortunate News came following the Fever’s 95-60 loss to the Phoenix Mercury on August 8, 2025, marking a challenging moment for the team.
- Sydney Colson and Aari McDonald injured
- Caitlin Clark's ongoing injury issues
- Fever's limited roster for upcoming game
- Colson's veteran experience with Aces
- McDonald's performance as a starter
- Fever's recent losing streak and standings
Colson suffered a torn ACL in the first quarter, while McDonald broke a bone in her right foot later in the game. With star player Caitlin Clark already sidelined for most of the season, the Fever are now left with only nine available players and no true point guards for their upcoming match against the Chicago Sky.
This situation raises questions about the Fever’s ability to compete effectively moving forward. How will they adapt to these injuries? The team had previously won five straight games but now faces back-to-back losses, which could jeopardize their playoff positioning.
- Colson averaged 2.4 points and 2.0 assists before her injury.
- McDonald contributed 9.8 points and 4.7 assists per game.
- The Fever currently sit in fifth place with a 17-14 record.
- Upcoming games against the Chicago Sky and Dallas Wings will be crucial for their playoff aspirations.
As the Fever prepare for their next game, fans will be eager to see how the team adjusts and whether they can bounce back against the Sky. Will they find a way to rally without their star players?
