The Indiana Fever have finalized a deal to sign guard Tyasha Harris, an Indianapolis-area native, to bolster their backcourt depth behind star Caitlin Clark. Harris, a sixth-year WNBA veteran, previously played for the Dallas Wings and Connecticut Sun and is known for her playmaking, defense, and 3-point shooting.

Why it matters

The Fever struggled with injuries last season, exposing a lack of guard depth behind Clark. The addition of Harris, who has experience playing under Fever head coach Stephanie White, should provide a reliable backup option and complement Clark's game well.

The details

Harris was drafted 7th overall by the Dallas Wings in 2020 after a standout college career at South Carolina. She spent two seasons with the Connecticut Sun before returning to Dallas in 2025, though she missed most of that year due to a knee injury. The Fever are hoping Harris' familiarity with Coach White and her strong two-way play will make her a valuable addition to the roster.

  • Harris is expected to officially sign with the Fever on Sunday, April 12, 2026.
  • She previously played for the Connecticut Sun in 2023 and 2024 under current Fever head coach Stephanie White.
