Indiana Fever franchise valuation has skyrocketed with Caitlin Clark
Since drafting Caitlin Clark, the Indiana Fever's franchise valuation has skyrocketed, per a report from Sportico.
The latest effects of Caitlin Clark's presence in Indianapolis were revealed in a new report from Sportico . According to Sportico, since drafting Clark in 2024, the Fever's franchise valuation has jumped from $90 million to $560 million entering the 2026 season. The Fever's franchise valuation ranks third in the WNBA, trailing only the Golden State Valkyries ($850 million) and the New York Liberty ($600 million).
That is a 522% increase and means the Fever are worth six times as much now as compared to before they drafted Clark. The Indiana Fever are now worth over 6x what they were before drafting Caitlin Clark back in 2024 š¤Æš (via @Sportico ) pic. twitter.
