Former Indiana Fever guard Bree Hall remains motivated despite being overlooked by the Caitlin Clark-led squad. The Fever selected Hall as the 20th pick in the 2025 draft, but she failed to make the final roster and was waived in May.

In June, she signed with the Golden State Valkyries, but the expansion team waived her in the same month after playing her in two games. Since then, Indiana has suffered major injuries in their guard department, but instead of leaning on the player it had drafted, the franchise has brought in experienced veterans.

On Thursday, Bree Hall shared a picture of herself on her Instagram story with a motivational caption.

"Trust the process⏳" she wrote.

Who have the Indiana Fever brought in after Sophie Cunningham's injury?

After Sophie Cunningham's injury, the Indiana Fever were left undermanned in their guard department. On Wednesday, the franchise brought in former Mercury player Shey Peddy to fill in the vacancy.

Peddy most recently played for the LA Sparks. She played six games for the Sparks this season and started in five of them. In her brief LA stint, she averaged 5.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.7 assists per game while shooting 41.7% from the field and 38.5% from the 3-point line.

The Indiana Fever have signed Peddy through a hardship contract after releasing guard Kyra Lambert. For Peddy, being on a hardship contract means that her stay in Indiana is not permanent and the franchise will have to release her once any other guard returns from injury.
