The Indiana Fever have signed free agent point guard Tyasha Harris, adding depth and experience to their backcourt. Harris, a former 7th overall draft pick, has spent the last five seasons in the WNBA with the Dallas Wings and Connecticut Sun. She is expected to serve as the primary backup to Fever star Caitlin Clark.

Why it matters

The Fever are looking to build a championship-caliber roster around their core of Caitlin Clark, Kelsey Mitchell, and Aliyah Boston. Signing Harris, a proven WNBA point guard, provides them with additional playmaking and scoring punch off the bench to support their starting lineup.

The details

Harris was originally drafted 7th overall by the Dallas Wings in 2020 after a standout college career at South Carolina. She spent three seasons in Dallas before being traded to the Connecticut Sun in 2023, where she started 38 games in 2024 and helped the team reach the WNBA semifinals. Harris was then traded back to Dallas last season but missed most of the year due to a left knee injury.

  • Harris is expected to officially sign with the Fever on Sunday, April 14, 2026.
  • She spent the last two seasons with the Connecticut Sun, starting 38 games in 2024.
