Indiana Fever president Kelly Krauskopf’s X account vanishes as comments on building an enduring brand beyond Caitlin Clark resurface amid team’s win.
In a curious turn of events, Indiana Fever president Kelly Krauskopf seems to have vanished from the digital landscape, with her X account mysteriously going offline. This disappearance coincided with the resurfacing of comments from her introductory press conference on October 8, just as the Fever clinched a solid 99-82 victory over the Atlanta Dream on Friday night.
During that press conference, Krauskopf ambitiously compared the Fever to an enduring brand like Apple, emphasizing the team’s potential to become a national leader beyond the star power of players like Caitlin Clark and Aliyah Boston. She spoke of building a legacy for future generations, noting that Clark herself was just 10 years old when the Fever won their only WNBA championship in 2012. Her vision is clear: create a team that transcends individual talent and resonates with a new demographic of fans.
However, these remarks didn’t sit well with some of Clark’s ardent supporters, and as clips of the press conference went viral on Friday, criticism poured in. Krauskopf had also highlighted Clark’s magnetic appeal on the court, suggesting that any smart player would jump at the chance to play alongside her—a nod to the young star’s undeniable recruiting power.
Meanwhile, Clark, returning from a groin injury, contributed 12 points in the Fever’s latest win, proving once again why she’s a cornerstone of this evolving team. But the question lingers: will Krauskopf’s bold vision for an enduring Fever brand weather the storm of public scrutiny, or has her digital exit signaled a deeper retreat?

Well, folks, it seems Kelly Krauskopf tried to reboot the Fever as the Apple of the WNBA, but her X account pulled a disappearing act faster than a magician’s rabbit. Is she dodging the heat from Clark’s fans, or just updating her ‘brand’ to ‘invisible’? Either way, comparing a basketball team to a tech giant—guess she’s hoping for a slam dunk in the App Store!
