Kelsey Mitchell to sign supermax deal, become first $1 million player in Fever history: Sources
The Indiana Fever and Kelsey Mitchell have agreed to a one-year, $1. 4 million supermax contract that will keep the star guard in Indiana, league sources confirmed to The Athletic on Friday . Mitchell can sign her new deal Saturday, per WNBA rules, which will make her the first player in Fever history to make $1 million in a single season.
Mitchell, a three-time All-Star, averaged a career-high 20. 2 points per game last year. She led the Fever to the semifinals of the playoffs, despite her main backcourt mate, two-time All-Star Caitlin Clark, being limited to just 13 games due to a slew of soft tissue injuries.
