Erica Wheeler's thoughts on her Indiana Fever future
On Friday, Erica Wheeler took to Threads and dropped a cryptic hint about her uncertain future with the Indiana Fever.
"My agent sent me a list for free agency Tuhhhhh😮💨😎"
Wheeler could be one of many names to switch teams this offseason. In 2023, the nine-season veteran signed a two-year, $444,308 deal with the 2012 WNBA champions. That deal is nearing an end and many expect her to leave via trade or free agency.

Now that the Fever has brought in Stephanie White to take the helm and guide the Caitlin Clark-led squad to glory in the next season, Wheeler looks set to move on.
