A franchise builder exits: Kelly Krauskopf steps down as Indiana Fever president

Kelly Krauskopf resigned as president of the Indiana Fever on Friday, the team announced. She took up the role in 2024, having previously served as the assistant general manager of the Indiana Pacers for six seasons. During her tenure, the Fever made the playoffs each of the last two seasons, advancing to the semifinals in 2025.

Under Krauskopf's guidance, the franchise won the WNBA championship in 2012 and reached the finals three times. She also played a crucial role in the development of the Fever's new performance center, set to open next spring. Krauskopf expressed gratitude for her time with the organization and the support of Herb Simon, the owner of Pacers Sports & Entertainment.
