The 2025 Indiana Fever season marked a fresh start under new head coach Stephanie White, who returned for a third stint after the firing of Christie Sides, though she briefly missed two June games for personal reasons. The team made headlines off the court by setting a WNBA record for the highest average resale ticket price ($670) for a May 4 preseason game against Brazil in Iowa City, which also drew 1.3 million viewers on ESPN. On the court, the Fever won the 2025 Commissioner's Cup on July 1 by defeating the Minnesota Lynx 74–59 without injured star Caitlin Clark, claiming a $500,000 prize, and clinched a second consecutive playoff berth on September 7 despite battling five season-ending injuries. The franchise hosted its first-ever WNBA All-Star Game in July, where Clark set a new fan voting record (1,293,526 votes) to become team captain alongside All-Star starters Aliyah Boston and Kelsey Mitchell. The season also featured a league investigation into alleged fan misconduct against Chicago Sky players, which was ultimately deemed unsubstantiated, while the team launched a new streaming service, Fever Direct, to expand regional fan access.
