Caitlin Clark‘s No. 1 fan is following her from the University of Iowa to the WNBA.
Clark went Instagram official with fellow basketball player and Iowa alum Connor McCaffrey in August 2023. Following his graduation that spring, McCaffrey began working as a team assistant for the Indiana Pacers.
“It’s a way in,” he told the Des Moines Register in 2023, expressing interest in becoming a coach someday like his father. “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.”
McCaffrey was a four-star recruit for the Iowa Hawkeyes, earning several honors throughout his college career, including the team’s Academic Excellence Award. While dating Clark, he’s become one of her biggest supporters.
Clark led the Hawkeyes to the 2024 NCAA women’s basketball championship after a record-breaking season and was later selected by the Indiana Fever as the No. 1 WNBA draft pick. As they celebrated her career milestone in New York City, Clark gushed over her boyfriend in a sweet Instagram Story upload.
“My fave person in the world,” she captioned the April 2024 post.
