The Indiana Fever announced Friday they are hiring former WNBA player Stephanie White as their new head coach, replacing Christie Sides.
The Indiana Fever have hired Stephanie White as their next head coach. White, 47, is replacing Christie Sides, who went 20-20 last season and led the team to its first playoff berth since 2016. As a player, White won a national championship with Purdue in 1999 and then was a part of the Fever’s inaugural team in 2000 as a rookie. She played for them from 2000-2004.
White was a member of the Fever coaching staff from 2011-2016. She was an assistant coach during the team’s 2012 championship run. Going into the 2015 season, White was promoted to head coach, leading the Fever to a championship berth in her first year in 2015. 'As we enter this new era of Fever basketball, I am thrilled to welcome Stephanie back to the franchise,' said Kelly Krauskopf, the Fever's president of basketball operations.
