Indianapolis – The Indiana Fever have officially signed Australian forward Chloe Bibby to a seven-day contract as of July 25, 2025. This acquisition aims to bolster the team’s lineup as they prepare for their upcoming matches.
Bibby, who recently played for the Golden State Valkyries, had two stints with the team during the current WNBA season, participating in a total of five games after re-signing on June 15. Before her signing with the Fever, Bibby was waived by the Valkyries on June 30. During her time with Golden State, she averaged 6.4 points and 2.8 rebounds per game in her second stint, with her best performance against the Indiana Fever itself, where she scored 12 points, including two successful three-pointers.
Prior to joining the Fever, Bibby showcased her skills internationally by playing for the Australia Opals, helping the team to a gold medal at the 2025 FIBA Women’s Asia World Cup earlier this month. In that tournament, she averaged 8.0 points and 6.2 rebounds per game, further cementing her reputation as a valuable player in international competitions. Additionally, she has experience from the 2022 FIBA World Cup, where she aided the Opals in securing a bronze medal in Sydney.
The Fever’s decision to sign Bibby comes in light of an open roster spot due to salary cap constraints and the ongoing recovery of player Caitlin Clark from a right groin injury. WNBA teams utilize seven-day contracts for flexibility, allowing them to assess players without the commitment of a full-season deal. Athletes can sign up to three seven-day contracts with a single team and have the potential to play for multiple teams during that timeframe.
Bibby’s basketball career also includes a distinguished college experience where she played at both Mississippi State and Maryland, averaging 13.2 points and 11.9 points per game during her final two seasons. Her performance earned her second-team All-Big Ten honors in 2022, alongside an honorable mention in 2021.
Chloe Bibby brings with her a wealth of overseas experience, having earned several accolades, including the Polish League MVP title for the 2023-24 season and the MVP of the Liga Femenina de Baloncesto in Spain for the 2024-25 season. Her international success and solid statistics from her recent performances make her a promising addition to the Fever’s roster as they gear up for the next game.
The Indiana Fever’s next matchup is against the Chicago Sky, scheduled for July 27 at 3 p.m. ET at the United Center. With Bibby’s signing, the Fever will hope to enhance their performance and deliver a strong showing in the upcoming game.
