Guard joins Fever following three seasons in Las Vegas
INDIANAPOLIS (Feb. 6, 2025) — The Indiana Fever have added guard Sydney Colson, the team announced today. Colson, a free agent, joins the Fever following three seasons with the Las Vegas Aces where she helped the team win back-to-back WNBA titles in 2022 and 2023.
“Sydney is a proven veteran in our league and throughout her career, delivered for her teams in many big moments,” Fever COO and General Manager Amber Cox said. “She brings a championship pedigree to the Fever, adding depth to our point guard position. We have the utmost confidence in her ability to step into any situation and deliver on both ends of the floor.
“I am very excited for this new opportunity with Indiana. I know several players and coaches from the Fever, and I trust what I know about them,” Colson said. “I’m excited to be a part of the vision that the staff has for this team, and I’m ready to get to work.”
Drafted in 2011 by the Connecticut Sun and traded to the New York Liberty ahead of the season, Colson helped the Liberty reach the postseason during her rookie campaign. The Houston, Texas, native has gone on to make the playoffs in five additional seasons – four with Las Vegas and one with the Chicago Sky.
A product of Texas A&amp;M University, Colson has averaged 2.8 points per game over her career, while shooting 40.4 from the field with 1.6 assists and 0.6 steals per game. She shot a career high 44.4 percent during the Aces’ 2023 championship season.
While with the Aggies, Colson guided the team to the 2011 NCAA Championship, won in Indianapolis at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

Indiana Fever Sign Two-Time WNBA Champion Sydney Colson

The recent games in the Semi-Finals of the 2024 WNBA Playoffs presented by Google have brought unexpected looks from the top players. Instead of sticking to their signature styles and pieces, multiple players have teamed up with their stylists to surprise fans with new aesthetics and moods. 

The intensity of recent games is reflected in more energetic styling, but these outfits aren't necessarily more 'business formal' or 'streetwear casual.' Discover how these players are taking their final games to truly lean into their self-expression and remind fans about their personality, on and off the court. 

Queen Egbo teams up with stylist Tosha Hartzog to create this 'edgy baddie' in the Aces' team colors of red and black. Bringing in elements of fun with her artistic 'Fake Birkin' bag by Saturday House, a Black-owned brand, Egbo also wears a matching red jacket. Wearing a pair of chunky, black leather boots, the overall look reads more fierce than some of Egbo's past laidback, streetwear style.

Sydney Colson stands out with a baggy outfit and an unexpected pretzel-shaped purse. Working with stylist Amadi Brooks, the duo began to remix the outfit with Timberland Boots and a denim jacket. Brooks explains her 'street' or 'streetwear' vibe for Colson's looks, which was translated in the Kate Spade street pretzel: "If you know Syd, you know her for humor... She loves plays on words and we felt like it became 'camp.'

Moving away from Napheesa Collier's more traditional looks, stylist Kimberly Steward introduces a 'street rocker chic' energy. There are interesting zipper details on her denim skort and jacket, which are paired with a vintage Queen souvenir t-shirt. While Collier still looks elegant and elevated, Steward explains that this outfit is an example of 'Phee's personal style and my aesthetic coming together for a look.'

Breanna Stewart leans into her greatest style strengths for this pregame look: a basic white T-shirt and eye-catching pants. Wearing jeans with a unique black fringe, she pairs the look with tough accessories like black sunglasses, a big watch, and shiny leather shoes. Instead of leaning more toward a business-inspired look or a streetwear-inspired look, Stewart hits the happy medium with this classic combination.

While Brionna Jones dresses typically in a more elevated way, she takes her most recent game to lean into the 'athleisure' trend. She styles a forest green bodysuit with an oversized bag in the same color. Paired with a long jacket and a beige hat, Jones plays up her chic, lounge look with a pair of glasses and simple gold jewelry.

Kelsey Plum contrasts her rocker or edgy looks, introducing an academic-inspired look to the tunnel. While Plum isn't a player who would wear a dress, she presents her twist with an oversized yellow button-up shirt. Coordinating her colors, she also wears a cardigan and a simple pair of black shoes with minimal accessories.

Game Recap: Liberty vs. Aces (10/4/24)

As the WNBA players battle it out on the court, they still bring the heat with their summer-inspired outfits in the tunnel. Continuing a survey of the top summer trends, the players have introduced more focus into their outfits with accessories, color coordination, and bold messaging. 

While holding sneakers in their pre-game outfits has become a way for players to debut new pairs of footwear, players are now planning their clothing to match their personalized designs. Under Armour athletes Kelsey Plum and Laeticia Amihere call attention to their PEs with their choice of shorts. Other players send messages through their choice of slogan baby tees or patterns on their materials. 

Other players are catching the last moments to wear trending summer styles, bringing oversized tops and the Beyoncé-inspired cowboy look into the tunnel. Moving away from classic athlete styles or pieces, discover how players are styling their pre-game looks through a unique, young, and distinctly female lens.

Players have been expressing the idea of girlhood through their baby tees, like Kamilla Cardoso's 'I'm Literally Just a Girl' top. Channeling Y2K styles through revived brands like Rickea Jackson's True Religion or Mikiah Herbert Harrigan's Ed Hardy baby tee, they enhance their throwback look with cargo miniskirts. 

Baby Tees

Holding their PE sneakers while doing their pre-game tunnel walks, players are coordinating their apparel to their footwear colorways. Under Armour athlete Laeticia Amihere wears patterns that pay homage to her cultural heritage while Kelsey Plum debuts a new fruit-inspired variation. Reebok athlete Angel Reese wears both apparel and footwear from her new collection, with shining jewelry and a Chanel purse-- all Angel's signature accessories. 

Shoe Coordination

The sports jersey has always been a hit in the tunnel, but last season's popular jersey dress has been swapped out for very oversized jerseys. Both Sydney Colson and Angel Reese pair their jerseys with equally large shorts and dramatic heels. Erica Wheeler and Rhyne Howard go the streetwear route with their jersey selection, but color coordinate their entire look to match.

Oversized Jersey

Veteran players A'ja Wilson and Betnijah Laney-Hamilton are taking bedazzled denim to the next level. While bedazzled or metallic elements in pre-game outfits have become extremely popular this season, these players have shining elements throughout their outfit-- hoop earrings, jewelry and sharp silver shoes.

Bedazzled Denim

Cowboy boots and Western-inspired styles have finally debuted in the tunnel this season. Representing different regions in the league, Jordan Horston, Crystal Dangerfield and Kayla Thornton all place their personal spin on these boots. Horston and Dangerfield fully commit to their look, with a hat, while Thornton goes for a more, city-ready denim look.
