Less than a week after she was waived by the Indiana Fever, former Indiana Hoosier Grace Berger has a new WNBA home. Berger, who played for the Hoosiers from 2018-23, was claimed off waivers by the Minnesota Lynx on Friday.

The Lynx, who reached the WNBA Finals last season, should be able to find a way to use Berger in their pursuit of the franchise's fifth WNBA Title. As opposed to the Fever, who have eight guards listed on their official roster, there are only five guards on the Lynx roster.

Berger was originally selected 7th overall in the 2023 WNBA Drafts by the Indiana Fever before being taken from the waivers by the Lynx. She played in two seasons for the Fever, appearing in 48 games. Details about Berger’s acquisition were not disclosed by the Lynx, per team policy.

The Indiana University to Indiana Fever connection seemed to be a match made in heaven for Hoosier State basketball fans, but that connection has been severed. Berger was waived by the Indiana Fever on Sunday.

The WNBA’s Indiana Fever waived guard Grace Berger on Sunday. Berger was selected as the No. 7 overall pick in the 2023 WNBA Draft after spending five seasons with Indiana women’s basketball.

Berger left college as Indiana's all-time winningest player, helping her coach Teri Moren bring the program to new heights - including a Big Ten Title and an Elite Eight appearance. She's the program's seventh-leading scorer of all time and second in assists.
