Sep 28, 2025; Indianapolis, Indiana, USA; Indiana Fever guard Kelsey Mitchell (0) in the second half during game four against the Las Vegas Aces of the second round for the 2025 WNBA Playoffs at Gainbridge Fieldhouse. Mandatory Credit: Trevor Ruszkowski-Imagn Images Indiana Fever star guard Kelsey Mitchell left in the third quarter of Game 5 on Tuesday of her team’s semifinal matchup against the host Las Vegas Aces after her leg gave out in a scary scene.
Mitchell, who was dealing with “a lot of lower-body cramping,” was transported to a hospital to be administered fluids, Indiana coach Stephanie White said after the Fever lost 107-98 in overtime to end their season.
Mitchell was seen grabbing at her left knee during a Fever possession, and on their next trip up the floor, when an offensive foul was called on teammate Aliyah Boston, Mitchell signaled to the ref that she needed medical attention.
Team trainers spent several minutes working on her leg, with ESPN reporting they were focused on her left quad area. At one point, they rolled out a stretcher for Mitchell, but she stood up and was able to walk off the floor with help.
Mitchell had 15 points and was 3-for-3 from 3-point range before her exit.
Aces forward A’ja Wilson said postgame, “She’s just had a phenomenal season and I really hope the Indiana Fever continue to take care of her, because she’s a gem.”
Mitchell, a three-time All-Star, finished fifth in MVP voting this season. She averaged a career-high 20.2 points and 3.4 assists while starting all 44 games for Indiana, and she had a 34-point outburst in Game 1 of the series vs. Las Vegas.
The Fever were already without Caitlin Clark, Sophie Cunningham and Aari McDonald due to season-ending injuries.
The Aces move on to face the Phoenix Mercury in the WNBA Finals.

Keegan Murray contract: Kings forward agrees to five-year, $140 million rookie extension, per report
Getty Images The Sacramento Kings have reportedly signed forward Keegan Murray to a five-year, $140 million rookie extension, per ESPN's Shams Charania. The fourth overall pick in the 2022 NBA Draft was set to become a restricted free agent next summer, but this new deal locks him in with Sacramento through the 2030-31 season.The hope is that Murray can return to the version of himself that averaged 15.2 points on 35.8% from 3-point range in his sophomore season. He looked like a solid 3-and-D threat that season, but his numbers took a dive last season (12.4 points, 34.3% from deep), in part due to all of the changes around him on the roster with the additions of DeMar DeRozan and Zach LaVine, and the departure of De'Aaron Fox. There was also the firing of Mike Brown and promoting Doug Christie […]
Kaulig Racing fires spotter for Ty Dillon after playoff-altering accident involving William Byron
NASCAR spotter Joe White shared Wednesday that he has been fired following a major accident involving Ty Dillon, the driver for whom he spotted, and Cup Series playoff contender William Byron late in Sunday's race at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. White worked for Kaulig Racing as the spotter for their No. 10 Cup Series team as well as their No. 11 Xfinity Series team.With 31 laps to go in Sunday's opening race of the Round of 8 at Las Vegas, Dillon -- who had been running laps down with a car that he had been struggling with -- was called to pit road for a green flag stop just after the leaders finished their cycle of stops. Normally, there is an expectation for a team coming to pit road to alert traffic behind them that they are slowing down to […]
