BREAKING: Fever President Kelly Krauskopf ANNOUNCES MAJOR ROSTER SHAKEUP AFTER Caitlin Clark Injury — Are They Targeting Angel Reese?

In the wake of star rookie Caitlin Clark’s injury and a string of disappointing losses, Indiana Fever President Kelly Krauskopf has just announced a large-scale roster update — and fans are buzzing over speculation that the team may be preparing a blockbuster move involving Angel Reese of the Chicago Sky.

The Fallout from Clark’s Absence

Caitlin Clark, the most high-profile WNBA rookie in years, has been sidelined following a recent injury that shook both the team and its massive fanbase. Without her, the Fever have struggled, dropping back-to-back games and showing visible signs of disarray both offensively and defensively.

During a press conference earlier today, Krauskopf acknowledged the team’s urgent need to “reassess and reload.”

“We are making key adjustments to strengthen our roster and improve our competitiveness in Caitlin’s absence,” Krauskopf said. “Our goal is long-term growth — but we’re not waiting around to collapse in the short term.”

What Do the Roster Changes Look Like?

While exact names haven’t been officially confirmed yet, multiple league sources suggest that the Fever are:

  • Waiving two bench players to create roster flexibility.

  • Actively engaging in trade talks with multiple teams for a rebounding-focused forward.

  • Looking for players who can bring “defensive grit and emotional leadership” — qualities that Reese is well known for.

Angel Reese Rumors Heat Up

The real headline-grabber? Insider buzz that Angel Reese may be on the Fever’s radar — and some fans believe it’s more than a long shot. Tensions between Reese and the Chicago Sky organization have reportedly grown, especially after recent on-court confrontations, media controversies, and the team’s uneven chemistry.

“Indiana is in desperate need of a power forward who can dominate the boards and anchor the paint while Clark recovers,” said a WNBA scout who asked to remain anonymous. “Reese is a natural fit — and she draws crowds. She and Clark together would be box office.”

Krauskopf didn’t directly address the Reese rumors but did hint that “multiple conversations are underway” and emphasized the need for “big energy players who elevate the team dynamic.”

Fan Reactions: Explosive

The internet is ablaze with speculation. Some fans are thrilled at the idea of Clark and Reese teaming up after being cast as rivals throughout their college careers.

“Angel and Caitlin on the same team? Instant championship potential. That’s the energy the WNBA needs,” one fan wrote on X.

Others remain skeptical, pointing to their past on-court rivalry and recent tension in media narratives.

“Let’s be real — would Angel even agree to play second to Clark?” one user posted. “It would be fireworks for sure… but maybe too hot to handle.”

What Would It Take to Get Reese?

If Indiana were to pursue Angel Reese, it would likely require a multi-player trade and/or draft picks. Chicago may not be eager to let go of one of its biggest names unless a major return is involved — but the right offer from Indiana, especially with pressure mounting to salvage their season, could change everything.

Bottom Line: A League-Altering Move Could Be Brewing

Kelly Krauskopf’s announcement signals that Indiana is not planning to ride out Caitlin Clark’s absence quietly. Whether Angel Reese is truly in their sights or just wishful thinking, one thing is clear:

The Fever are ready to shake things up — and the WNBA could be in for a seismic shift.
