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.

Thompson scores first goal as Chelsea thrash Paris FC in Champions League
Club-record signing Alyssa Thompson opened her Chelsea account in a 4-0 thrashing of Paris FC as Sonia Bompastor's side claimed their first Champions League win of the season. Thompson, signed from NWSL's Angel City for around £1m on Deadline Day, was one of the bright sparks for Chelsea as they responded to a disappointing draw at FC Twente in their opener with a dominant performance at Stamford Bridge. The 20-year-old USA international set up Chelsea's second with a cross for Johanna Rytting Kaneryd's looping header and scored the third at the back post to get off the mark for her new club and in the Champions League.

FIBA suspendovala Britskou basketbalovou federaci
Superliga vznikla loni po kolapsu britské ligy. Letos v dubnu federace udělila licenci na 15 let konzorciu amerického obchodníka Marshalla Glickmana na provozování nové soutěže. Do ní se však devět klubů, jež založily superligu, odmítlo zapojit. Jejich zástupci tvrdí, že tendr federace byl napadením dominantního postavení superligy. BBF argumentuje tím, že superlize udělila jen dočasnou licenci a její fungování mělo pouze překlenout dobu, než udělí dlouhodobou licenci.FIBA uvedla, že britskou federaci suspendovala po důkladném prozkoumání situace, které zahrnovalo rozhovory se zástupci všech stran. V době suspendace nesmí BBF udělovat licence či uznávat národní mužské soutěže či posílat mužský národní tým do seniorských soutěží FIBA. Koncem listopadu mají britští basketbalisté zahájit kvalifikaci o mistrovství světa.
