"GIMME THAT PIC WITH LEBRON AND LUKA" - Fans go gaga as Caitlin Clark and bf Connor McCaffery make appearance at Lakers-Pacers game

Basketball fans online went bananas after Caitlin Clark shared that he's in the same building as fellow superstars LeBron James and Luka Doncic. Clark and her boyfriend Connor McCaffery were in attendance for the Pacers' game against the LA Lakers on Wednesday.

In a post on Instagram stories, Clark shared her view of the court in the Pacers' suite at the Gainbridge Fieldhouse. The Fever star took a break from her preparations for the upcoming WNBA season by tuning into one of the biggest Pacers games of the year.

The Lakers were in town for the only time this season, with James and Doncic suiting up for the game. The Pacers were looking to extend their five-game winning streak, while the Purple and Gold entered the contest as losers of three straight.

Caitlin Clark's fans online couldn't contain their excitement at the possibility of their favorite superstar taking a picture with LeBron James and Luka Doncic. A photo of that magnitude could break the internet if it happens.

"GIMME THAT PIC WITH LEBRON AND LUKA," a fan tweeted.

"CAITLIN, BRON AND LUKA WHEN?" another fan asked.

"Caitlin watching Luka tonight?!" one fan remarked.

Clark and McCaffery have been in plenty of basketball games this season. They were at the Iowa-Michigan State game earlier this month, with Clark supporting McCaffery's stint as Butler assistant coach by attending Bulldogs games when possible.

"They simply can’t watch enough basketball," a fan tweeted.

"Caitlin Clark is going to get to watch a lot of high end basketball this week," one fan commented.

"Do we think LeB is scared to score in front of CC??" another fan jokingly asked.

The Fever are set to start training camp next month, but some players have already arrived in Indianapolis to start individual workouts. They begin their season on May 16 against Angel Reese and the Chicago Sky.

LeBron James once described Caitlin Clark as an icon of college basketball

Before coming to the WNBA, Caitlin Clark and her peers were called "icons" by LA Lakers superstar LeBron James. "The King" had nothing but praise for the young women taking the game to the next level.

"I think the popularity comes in with the icons that they have in the women's game," James told ESPN in April 2024. "You look at Angel Reese, you look at JuJu (Watkins), you look at Caitlin Clark, you look at Paige (Bueckers). You look at the young girl that's at Iowa State, the freshman there (Audi Crooks)."

Clark and the rest of the WNBA have a chance to further move the sport into the next stratosphere this upcoming season.
