Big, big piece for Caitlin and the team heading into her second year…
Per Alexa Philippou, Natasha Howard will sign with the Fever. 2-time all-star, and crucially a former DPOY.
NaLyssa Smith was a liability at the 4 too often for the Fever, and she never meshed with CC. With the Vals taking Temi Fagbenle in the expansion draft instead of NaLyssa, Indiana especially needed someone who could help Aliyah Boston with the dirty work on the interior — and send a message to opponents who want to throw an elbow at the young upstart who’s taking over the league.
Still think the Fever need a wing who’s a major weapon in transition. One Does Not Simply Add A Kahleah Copper, of course, but another speed weapon for CC on the wing helps open things up for everyone else in a big, big way.
