Indiana Fever guard Kelsey Mitchell has been named to the Associated Press’ All-WNBA First Team for the first time in her career, the team announced Friday.

Mitchell is the second Fever player to be named to any AP All-WNBA team since it was created in 2016, joining Caitlin Clark, a member of the 2024 AP All-WNBA First Team. Mitchell was previously named to AP’s All-Rookie team in 2018.

Mitchell led the WNBA in 3-pointers made with 111 and scored the second-most points with 890. She ranked third in points per game at 20.2, breaking Tamika Catchings’ team mark set in 2003.

Mitchell led the Fever in minutes (1,381), set the team’s mark for points in a season, became the career 3-pointers record holder at 669, eighth-most in WNBA history, and has 11 30-plus-point games in her career, passing Catchings for the Fever record.

Mitchell was also a WNBA All-Star this season — her third consecutive time — and Eastern Conference Player of the Week twice.
