The Indiana Fever have navigated a roller‑coaster first half of the 2025 WNBA season, sitting at a balanced 9‑9 record through 18 games.
Despite sending three players to the All-Star Game in Caitlin Clark, Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell, inconsistency remains a thorn, having alternated big wins with confusing losses.
To reignite excitement among Fever faithful, the organization hosted a meet‑and‑greet at Chicken Salad Chick in Fishers, Indiana, on Tuesday, one day ahead of the team's upcoming matchup with the Golden State Valkyries.
Fans lined the sidewalk in sweltering summer heat for a chance to mingle with guards Lexie Hull and Aari McDonald, as captured in a video the team shared on X.
The clip shows a crowd of supporters winding around the building, Fever jerseys on proud display.

Selected sixth overall by Indiana in the 2022 WNBA Draft, Hull arrived as a pivotal member of Stanford’s 2021 national championship team, a three‑time All‑Pac‑12 honoree and two‑time Pac‑12 All‑Defensive first team.
This season, she's enjoying her best year yet as a member of the Fever, averaging a career-high 8.4 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.1 steals in 18 games (15 starts).
McDonald, meanwhile, entered the WNBA as the third overall pick in 2021 (Atlanta Dream) after starring at Washington and Arizona, where she earned Pac‑12 Player of the Year and back‑to‑back Pac‑12 Defensive Player of the Year honors.
After stops overseas and a stint with the Los Angeles Sparks, McDonald joined the Fever for the 2025 season, initially signing a hardship contract before a rest-of-season deal on June 25.
Over seven games in Indiana (three starts), she has averaged 10.3 points, 2.3 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 1.3 steals per contest.
