BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – Mackenzie Holmes will be a graduate manager for Indiana women's basketball during the 2024-25 season, the program announced Monday.

The Seattle Storm selected Holmes with the 26th overall pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft, but she underwent knee surgery in May and plans to join the team for training camp in the spring of 2025.

Indiana is also hiring Lauren Fields as a graduate manager, who just finished her playing career at West Virginia, Oklahoma State and Arizona.
