Despite her impressive 2024 campaign, Carter did not land another WNBA job prior to the 2025 season. Now playing in Mexico, the 5-foot-9 guard is averaging 17.2 points and 4.8 assists in 11 contests for Adelitas de Chihuahua (via Asia-Basket).

As Carter continues to prove her scoring ability at the professional level, many fans have been calling for her to get another opportunity in the WNBA. This includes Indiana Fever fans.

While Carter is under contract in Mexico, making an in-season move to the WNBA impractical, that didn’t stop fans from believing she’d be a fit alongside Caitlin Clark in Indiana.

“It was my immediate thought,” said one.

“I’m with it,” said another.

“I’d love this!” exclaimed one.

“Her and CC would be 🔥,” one added.

“I’m down it would be an interesting story,” another stated.

Last season, Carter made headlines with a hard away from the play foul on Clark. Knocking Indiana’s rookie to the ground, Carter then made comments on social media questioning what Clark brings to the game besides 3-point shooting (via Bleacher Report).

This incident, along with Carter’s history of behavioral issues, certainly makes her a polarizing player. That said, many Fever fans believe she can bring a scoring punch and toughness the team needs. As these calls have been mounting, Carter issued a message on X.

“championship in mexico loading,” she wrote. “check back end of the month!”

While it’s unclear if she is directly addressing the calls for her to make a WNBA comeback, it is interesting timing and wording. Seemingly focused on winning a championship in Mexico, Carter urged her followers to check back in at the end of the month.

Throughout Carter’s professional career, she has been involved in multiple reported off-the-court issues. In 2023, the LA Times reported Carter had been released by the Los Angeles Sparks. The report stated Carter was “benched for poor conduct” prior to her release. She was also suspended by the Atlanta Dream for “conduct detrimental to the team” in her first WNBA stint.
