The Indiana Fever capped off their 2026 WNBA Draft by adding a proven scorer, selecting Alabama guard Jessica Timmons with the 40th overall pick in the third round.

Timmons, a 5'9" guard, arrives in Indiana fresh off a stellar senior season where she averaged 16.3 points and 4.5 rebounds per game for the Crimson Tide. Her efficient shooting—43% from the field and 39% from beyond the arc—solidified her role as Alabama's offensive leader, helping guide the team to a 24-11 record and a No. 6 seed in the NCAA Tournament.

Her selection rounds out a strategic draft class for the Fever, who earlier secured South Carolina's dynamic guard Raven Johnson with the 10th pick and versatile wing Justine Pissott at No. 25. This trio of newcomers is poised to bring fresh energy and competition to training camp, which opens Sunday.

With only 14 roster spots available from the current preseason pool of 15 players, Timmons and her fellow draftees will have every opportunity to prove they belong. For Fever fans, this draft signals a clear focus on bolstering backcourt depth and adding high-IQ players ready to contribute from day one.
