Indiana Fever fires another staffer amid major front-office overhaul

The Indiana Fever have made another cut in their ongoing front-office overhaul.
This time the franchise has parted ways with basketball operations and equipment manager Kristin Moore.
According to IX Sports, Moore’s exit is the latest in a series of departures that have reshaped the Fever’s front office this offseason.
Moore arrived in Indiana in early 2025 after running equipment for the Las Vegas Aces and Stanford University.
She quickly rose from operations coordinator to basketball operations manager.
Her quiet exit after nearly two years adds to the growing instability behind the scenes.
KELLY KRAUSKOPF AND AMBER COX GONE

The shake-up began when Kelly Krauskopf stepped down from her role.
Shortly after, Amber Cox was also shown the door.
The Fever have not hired a president of basketball operations to replace them.
They are also scrambling to find a general manager.
This leaves the franchise without clear leadership at the top of the basketball operations hierarchy.
NO COACHING STABILITY EITHER
Head coach Stephanie White led the Fever to the postseason last year.
Despite that success, her standing with a vocal segment of the fanbase has eroded.
Some fans are now calling for a fresh voice on the bench.
Adding to the pressure, chatter has loosely floated White’s name for the vacant New York Liberty head coaching job.
The Liberty fired Chris DeMarco earlier this offseason.
White’s situation remains unresolved as the Fever continue to churn through staff.
ROSTER UNCERTAINTY LOOMS
The front-office chaos comes at a critical time for the roster.

Kelsey Mitchell just delivered an All-WNBA season alongside Caitlin Clark.
But Mitchell is entering free agency, and her future in Indiana is not guaranteed.
Sophie Cunningham is also a free agent.
Both players are key pieces around Clark, who has become the face of the franchise.
The list of free agents available ahead of the 2027 WNBA season is considered deep and competitive.
WHAT KRISTIN MOORE’S EXIT MEANS
Moore’s departure is significant because it signals the shake-up is reaching deeper into the organization.

She was not a high-profile executive like Krauskopf or Cox.
But her role in basketball operations and equipment management touched day-to-day team functions.
Losing that institutional knowledge, even after less than two years, creates another gap to fill.
The Fever have not announced a replacement for Moore.
They have also not commented publicly on the reasons for her departure.
BIGGER PICTURE
The Fever are at a crossroads.

They have one of the most marketable players in sports history in Caitlin Clark.
They have a young core that just made the playoffs.
But the front office is in flux, the coaching staff is under pressure, and key free agents have not yet re-signed.
Other WNBA teams have taken notice of the instability.
Some league insiders are watching to see whether the Fever can stabilize before the 2027 season begins.
WHAT HAPPENS NEXT
The Fever still need to hire a general manager.
They still need to resolve Stephanie White’s status.
They still need to re-sign or replace Kelsey Mitchell and Sophie Cunningham.
And they still need to fill the operational void left by Kristin Moore.
Until those questions are answered, the franchise will remain in a state of uncertainty.
The front-office overhaul that began as a reset now looks like it has no clear end in sight.
