The WNBA’s Indiana Fever waived guard Grace Berger on Sunday. Berger was selected as the No. 7 overall pick in the 2023 WNBA Draft after spending five seasons with Indiana women’s basketball.
During her two-year tenure in Indianapolis, Berger played 47 games and averaged 13.3 minutes per game. Over her five-year career with Indiana from 2018-23, Berger scored 1,841 total points and earned First Team All-Big Ten honors in each of her last four seasons.
In her rookie season, the Louisville, Kentucky, native played 36 games and scored 4.2 points per game. But during her second season, Berger saw action in just 11 contests and notched 2.8 points per game.
After the 2024 season, the Fever fired head coach Christie Sides and subsequently hired Stephanie White, who previously served as the Connecticut Sun’s head coach. White played for the Fever from 2000-04 before serving as their head coach from 2015-16.
Berger, who is currently playing for OGM Orman Genclik Ankara in the Turkish KBSL, will now look to land on another WNBA’s squad’s roster ahead of training camp, which begins April 27. The regular season is slated to start on May 16.
