Indiana Fever Land Three Players on ESPN's Top 15 WNBA List

After making it all the way to the semifinals in 2025, the Indiana Fever are unsurprisingly one of the favorites to compete for the championship in the 2026 WNBA season.

According to DraftKings, the Fever have the third-best odds to win the WNBA Finals in the upcoming season at +450, behind only the New York Liberty (+220) and the Las Vegas Aces (+390).

It's not surprising to see the Fever be considered among the top dogs, though. After all, they have some of the top players in the league in Caitlin Clark, Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell.

In fact, ESPN ranked the three of them among the best 15 in its top 50 WNBA players list for the 2026 season.

Clark was ranked the highest among the three at No. 10, followed by Mitchell at No. 11. Boston, for her part, was ranked 14th. All three were selected as All-Stars last season.

Clark played just 13 games in 2026 due to a groin injury and a bone bruise. Despite that, it's hard to ignore how dangerous she is when healthy. In her rookie season, she was an MVP contender and even led the league in assists with 8.4 per game.

As for Mitchell, she was an MVP candidate last season and a member of the All-WNBA First Team after averaging 20.2 points per game.

Boston, on the other hand, was a member of the All-WNBA Second Team and the All-Defensive Second Team. She put up 15.0 points, 8.2 rebounds, 3.7 assists, 1.2 steals and 0.9 blocks per game.

The only other team to have three players in the top 15 was the Liberty. The Aces and Atlanta Dream have two each.

It will be interesting to see how far the Fever go in 2026 with Clark, Mitchell and Boston leading the way. Sure enough, expectations are high for Indiana, especially considering how star-studded the team is.
