Stephanie White has officially parted ways with the Connecticut Sun.
The Indiana Fever have let go Christie Sides.
It seems as if it’s only a matter of time and the details before Stephanie White is the next coach for Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever.
Let’s talk about it!
Caitlin Clark already knows Stephanie White’s view on her and WNBA coach’s plans
Stephanie White has been linked with the Indiana Fever head coaching vacancy and has previously shown her vocal support for Caitlin Clark.
Caitlin Clark could have a new coach in Stephanie White for the 2025 WNBA season
Stephanie White, who previously praised Caitlin Clark during her rookie season in the WNBA, could potentially become her new head coach at Indiana Fever. The franchise announced on Sunday (October 27) that they had parted ways with head coach Christie Sides, despite the team reaching the playoffs for the first time in six years.
White, currently the head coach of the Connecticut Sun, is being considered as a strong candidate for the vacant position due to her past association with the team and her support for Clark during her debut season.
Notably, the 47-year-old was raised in Indiana, where she attended Seeger High School and Purdue University, and played for the Fever in the WNBA from 2000 to 2004. After her playing career, White served as an assistant coach with the club for three years before being promoted to head coach of the franchise in 2015.
She guided the club to their second WNBA Finals appearance in her first year at the helm, which they lost to the Minnesota Lynx. White may have unintentionally won over many Clark supporters when she defended the 22-year-old against criticism following a slow start to her rookie season.
Sun coach White has confidently dismissed concerns about Caitlin Clark’s early performance, saying: “I’m looking at all these things that all these people are talking about with Caitlin Clark. I’m like, “Guys, chill out. She’s going to be fine,” she said.
“It’s two games in, are you kidding me? She’s a student of the game. She got better every year [in college]… It takes time.” During the playoffs, where her team triumphed over the Fever in a dominant sweep, White kept a close watch on Clark, praising her ability to connect with teammates.

“Everybody on the floor understands how, when and where Caitlin Clark can get them the ball. And so they get there,” she observed. White also noted Kelsey Mitchell’s elevated play, stating: “Kelsey Mitchell’s obviously playing at another level now, and so it gives you another player on the floor that you have to be mindful of, on and off ball in isolation and in two-man.”
Despite being under contract with the Sun until 2025, White’s vague comments about her future have fuelled rumours of a possible return to the Fever. When asked about her plans, she said: “My priority is my family right now,” and emphasized: “Honestly, just being here for my family, getting through this, that’s my priority.”
