Lead Stories says: Still Coaching
Did the Indiana Fever fire head coach Stephanie White on Aug. 10, 2026? No, that's not true: The claim is not supported by any official announcement from the team and was not found on the Fever website. In addition, White appeared at the team's media availability on Aug. 10, 2026, alongside two of her players.
The claim appeared in a post and image (archived here ) by the @FeverUpdate account on X on Aug. 10, 2026. It read:
The Indiana Fever have fired head coach Stephanie White following her controversial post-game remarks regarding Dijonai Carrington's foul and actions against Sophie Cunningham.
The decision comes amid mounting backlash, with the team's Board of Directors reportedly calling an emergency meeting to address the situation.
A new head coach is expected to be revealed tomorrow ahead of the Fever's game against the New York Liberty.
This is what the post looked like on X at the time of writing:
