Caitlin Clark is the latest superstar to arrive in the state of Indiana. She was selected first overall in the 2024 WNBA Draft by the Indiana Fever. It was the perfect situation for Clark professionally and personally.

Professionally, the Fever have the perfect player to pair with Clark in Aliyah Boston. They have a chance to build around the two first overall picks and make things great in Indiana again.

Meanwhile, Clark will be close to her boyfriend Connor McCaffery, who lives in Indianapolis. McCaffery is employed by the Pacers as a team assistant. He started working there in September, helping scouts and coaches with film, reports and more.

"It's a way in. It's an entry-level job. You've got to work hard and work your way up. That's obviously what I want to do. I'm really excited. I want to get away and try to learn from someone else, somewhere else.

"I've always been under my dad's shadow and tutelage. Now, learning from someone like coach Carlisle and the assistants they have there, they're all good basketball minds," McCaffery said. [H/T ESPN]
