Indiana Fever 2020 season: 6–16, scoring 81.7 points per game and allowing 89.5 (-7.9 average margin) across 22 games. Updated August 16, 2026.
Scouting report
The Fever finished 6–16, 11th in the league standings, with a -10.2 net rating that ranked 11th of 12. The problems ran both ways: 8th in offensive rating and 12th in defensive rating. Nothing jumped off the page as a strength, and the weak spots were turnovers (19.7 a game, 2nd-most in the league) and getting outshot (49.4% eFG vs. 52.1% allowed). Scoring was spread around — Kelsey Mitchell led at 17.9 a game, but no one accounted for more than 22% of the points, though the on/off numbers point to Teaira McCowan as the one they can least afford to lose — +7.1 per 100 possessions better with her on the floor. The high points: a 16-point rout of the Dream on Aug 2. The lows: an 8-game losing streak (Aug 22–Sep 8) and a 25-point loss at the Mystics on Jul 25. They went 2–10 against teams at .500 or better, and faded late, 1–9 over the last 10. Bottom line: a difficult season, with Kelsey Mitchell the main reason to watch and its turnover problem the most urgent fix.
