Leads the way in scoring Saturday Mitchell finished with 30 points (11-22 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 6-7 FT), three rebounds and four assists across 33 minutes in Saturday's 107-104 loss to Dallas.

Impact Mitchell and Caitlin Clark had trouble getting their shots to fall, with the duo going 4-for-18 from downtown. Still, outside of the shooting struggles, Mitchell had a quality showing by accumulating a game-high 30 points. The 30-year-old has spent her entire career with the Fever, most recently averaging a career-best 20.2 points with 1.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.2 blocks across 31.4 minutes in 2025. If Clark stays healthy after only appearing in 13 games last season, Mitchell will likely see a dip in scoring. However, she should continue to get minutes and remain a consistent contributor on the offensive end moving ahead.

Performs well in preseason finale Mitchell posted 17 points (6-9 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, two assists and two steals in 14 minutes during Saturday's 105-57 preseason win over the Nigeria National Team.

Impact Mitchell put up double-digit points in each of the Fever's three preseason matchups, and she was much more efficient during Saturday's preseason finale after going just 4-for-12 from the floor during Thursday's preseason loss. Mitchell also tied for the team lead in steals during Saturday's matchup. The 30-year-old averaged a career-high 20.2 points per game last year, and she should remain a focal point in Indiana's offense in 2026, even though Caitlin Clark will be back in action.

Scores 10 in preseason loss Mitchell generated 10 points (4-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT) in 17 minutes during Thursday's 95-80 preseason loss to Dallas.

Impact Although Mitchell didn't have her most efficient performance from the floor Thursday, she led the team in field-goal attempts and was one of three players to score in double figures for the Fever. Mitchell had much more success from the field during Saturday's preseason opener against the Liberty, scoring 18 points (7-12 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT) to go with an assist, and she should have plenty of opportunities to shine alongside Caitlin Clark once the regular season gets underway.

Ties team-high 18 points Mitchell generated 18 points (7-12 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and one assist in Saturday's 109-91 preseason victory over New York.

Impact Mitchell looked every bit the All-WNBA First Team performer she was last season, taking over in the second quarter when the Liberty briefly grabbed the lead. The 30-year-old re-signed on a one-year, $1.4 million supermax deal this offseason and should operate as Indiana's top scoring option alongside Caitlin Clark.

Agrees to supermax deal Mitchell is finalizing a one-year, $1.4 million contract with the Fever on Friday, Chiney Ogwumike of ESPN reports.

Impact Mitchell received a core qualifying offer from Indiana on Monday, and she'll officially remain with the Fever on a supermax deal. The 30-year-old has been among the league's top scorers for most of her career, and she put together one of the strongest years of her eight-year tenure in the WNBA in 2025, as she averaged a career-high 20.2 points to go with 3.4 assists, 2.5 made three-pointers and 1.8 assists in 31.4 minutes per game, and she's also appeared in every regular-season matchup in three consecutive seasons. Although Caitlin Clark will be healthy to begin the 2026 campaign after missing most of last year due to groin and ankle injuries, Mitchell should continue to put up elite production as part of Indiana's backcourt.
