Caitlin Clark, a prominent figure in Indiana basketball, expressed her enthusiasm about the current state of basketball in the region.

She stated, “It’s a wonderful time to be a fan of basketball in Indiana.”

Clark’s Excitement
Prior to the WNBA game of the Indiana Fever against the Atlanta Dream, she shared her excitement over the Pacers’ impressive recent comeback win against the New York Knicks, which concluded with a score of 138-135 in overtime. Clark captured her genuine reaction to Tyrese Haliburton’s game-tying shot through a video on her phone, which she revealed she won’t be sharing just yet.

“I have a video on my phone I’m never going to show anybody,” Clark remarked, reflecting on her experience. “It’s a pretty iconic video. Maybe one day everybody will see it, but not right now.”

Social Media Reaction
Clark also praised the Pacers on social media, labeling them as “the greatest comeback team” after their series of impressive rallies this playoff season.

Postseason Connection
Clark, who had an impressive debut season in the WNBA, noted that her boyfriend, Connor McCaffery, recently completed his first season as an assistant coach with Butler University. The couple is closely following the Pacers as they progress further in the playoffs.

“This team keeps pushing against the odds; it’s remarkable,” Clark noted. “They truly never give up.”

Looking ahead to the weekend, Clark is excited that the 109th Running of the Indianapolis 500 will take place at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, promising an action-packed event in the city followed by the Pacers’ next playoff game against the Knicks.

“It’s amazing to be in Indianapolis right now—the energy surrounding basketball is infectious,” Clark concluded.
