Indiana Fever part ways with coach Christie Sides after two seasons

The Indiana Fever have fired coach Christie Sides after two seasons, where she had a record of 33-47. This decision follows the Fever's playoff appearance, where they were eliminated in the first round 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 new coach will inherit a young team, featuring Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston, who have won the last two Rookie of the Year awards. The Fever's president expressed gratitude for Sides' contributions during a challenging transition period.
