The Fever’s injury report for tomorrow’s preseason game against the Atlanta Dream:

Damiris Dantas - OUT (Right Knee)
Kelsey Mitchell - DOUBTFUL (Left Ankle)

Christie Sides remembers once, back when she was an assistant with the Chicago Sky, that a plane was delayed. Then again. Then canceled. They ended up having to sleep in the airport.

Soon, though, players flying commercially will be in the past.

Some shooting drills at the end of practice for the Fever, practicing on the main court today.

The Indiana Fever’s days flying commercially are numbered, assuming this charter flight plan goes through.

WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert said Tuesday the league is moving toward full-season charter flights this year.

Big, big news for the WNBA, albeit weird timing with preseason games already going on and less than a week before the season starts.

Either way, charters are crucial for both security and rest for players.

JuJu Watkins is coming to town this winter.

With the new teams in the Big Ten, too, Purdue is IU’s only double-play conference game.

Cathy Engelbert has always cited the financials. So if the league sees the money coming, it makes sense to bring on charters now before there's a safety issue for players.

Tickets for the Fever game, originally on the Long Beach State campus with a capacity of 4,200, have been long sold out.

Welcome change for fans who couldn’t get those seats!

Some thoughts about the Fever’s last-second loss, including Clark’s play and their defense.

Indiana was a part of 26 close games last season, and the Fever didn’t win enough of those as they’d like. It strikes again here.
