Bibby signed a seven-day contract with the Fever last July 25. After playing just two games, the team signed the Australian native for the rest of the season, adding to the Fever's frontcourt rotation. She is shooting 33.3% from three for the Fever. According to Spotrac, Bibby is earning $66,079 in her contract with the Fever this season.

The Fever has struggled with injury this season as star Caitlin Clark has only appeared in 13 games, while veterans Colson (torn ACL) and Aari McDonald (foot) will be missing the rest of the season.

Fever head coach Stephanie White explains how Chloe Bibby fits with the team

According to Fever head coach Stephanie White, Chloe Bibby fits well with Indiana's frontcourt rotation as she allows the likes of Aliyah Boston to be an inside operator.

"Yeah, I mean, her ability to stretch the floor, to be a shot maker, to create some space on the interior for [Aliyah Boston], her size certainly as well, are all things that we liked," White said.
"Now we get an opportunity to see. She came in, she studied the offense, and she's been good. She's been really good."

Bibby has not made a three in her last four games. However, in her first three games with the Fever, she drained two threes in each of her appearances. She is expected to rack up more minutes for the squad as they look to secure their playoff spot.
