Fans loved seeing Caitlin Clark make an appearance at an NBA G-League game this weekend with the WNBA superstar attending the Indiana Mad Ants’ season-opener with her boyfriend Connor McCaffery.
The two were seen smiling and joking throughout the game while cheering on Indiana, Clark‘s new home after being drafted to the Indiana Fever with the first pick of the 2024 WNBA Draft earlier this year. When cameras panned to Clark, she received a warm reception by fans in the arena while many on social media commented on how happy she seemed with McCaffery at the game.
Clark has already become a much-loved figure in the state of Indiana following a stunning rookie season. And she is continuing to integrate herself within the area along with her boyfriend now living there too.

While studying at Iowa together, Clark and McCaffery both moved to the same city of Indianapolis after leaving school – with the latter working with the NBA’s Indiana Pacers as a team assistant. In september he joined local college Butler University, while Clark had became the No. 1 overall pick by the Indiana Fever.
Clark and McCaffery went public with their relationship last August, with news emerging that the couple had actually been together for several months prior when she posted their 12-month anniversary in April.
The WNBA superstar is seemingly loving life off the court after a sensational first year in the pro’s. Clark was selected first overall draft pick and won rookie of the year while guiding the Fever to the playoffs – their best season since 2015.
Clark’s incredible play and dominance for large parts of the season saw millions of fans tune in to see Hawkeyes games while still in college, going on to be just one win away from winning the national championship for a second year in a row. Similar fanfare followed in the WNBA, as tickets for road games spiked with the interest in the sport seemingly at an all-time high.
After further changes to their roster this offseason, the Fever could be favorites to compete in the playoffs in Clark’s second season, most notably seeing former Connecticut Sun head coach Stephanie White in an exciting hiring.
