The Indiana Fever are on fire post-Olympic break, fueled by standout performances from Caitlin Clark, who recently earned AP Player of the Week honors. With impressive wins over the Phoenix Mercury and Seattle Storm, the Fever have quickly become one of the league’s hottest teams.
The Fever have a promising future, anchored by stars Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston. However, if they want to accelerate their path to a WNBA championship, a major addition to their roster might be necessary.
Fans believe they’ve identified the perfect free agent to join forces with Clark: Dallas Wings forward Satou Sabally. Sabally, who missed the first half of the 2024 season due to a shoulder injury, has returned in dominant form. In her first two games back, she’s averaged 22.0 points, 6.5 rebounds, and 5.5 assists, proving why she was an All-WNBA First Team selection last season.
WNBA and Fever fans are already buzzing about her upcoming free agency in 2025, taking to social media to call for Sabally to join Clark in Indiana.
“Go to Indy and it’s curtains for the W,” one fan declared.

“Coach Dunn needs to get the checkbook out,” urged another.
Satou Sabally will be one of the most intriguing free agents during the WNBA’s offseason.

“She’s awesome—would love her teaming with Caitlin Clark!!” echoed a supporter.
“We need her at Indiana. Dunn, put that money on a real shooter,” added another fan.
“Go to the Indiana Fever where all you have to do is run and get easy buckets… and so much driving space to get downhill,” one fan suggested.
“Welcome to the Indiana Fever,” another boldly stated.
Indiana’s third All-Star, Kelsey Mitchell, is also set to become a free agent this offseason. With over $650,000 in cap space, the Fever are well-positioned to not only re-sign Mitchell but also bring in a star like Sabally.
If this dream scenario plays out, the Fever could quickly become a dominant force in the WNBA for years to come.
