Indiana Fever part ways with coach Christie Sides after two seasons

The Indiana Fever have fired coach Christie Sides after two seasons, during which she had a record of 33-47. This decision follows the team's first-round playoff exit, where they were swept by the Connecticut Sun. Indiana is the sixth WNBA team to change coaches this offseason, joining Dallas, Atlanta, Chicago, Washington, and Los Angeles. All the teams that made changes had coaches with three years or less experience. The Fever will now seek a new coach to lead a young team, featuring recent Rookie of the Year winners Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston. Sides had two years remaining on her contract.
