Caitlin Clark’s Boyfriend Sweetly Shares Video of Her Walking into First WNBA Game

Connor McCaffery is one proud boy!

After weeks of anticipation, basketball star Caitlin Clark finally made her WNBA debut on May 14, and her McCaffery made sure to celebrate the big moment on social media.

In his Instagram stories, McCaffery, 25, shared a video of Clark, 22, who was all smiles as she entered the arena to play her first WNBA regular season game.

Clark went on to have an up-and-down game — while scoring a team-high 20 points, she also committed 10 turnovers, the most ever in a WNBA debut.

McCaffery had a rough night at work, too. This fellow, a former Iowa basketball player, is now a backup for the NBA’s Indiana Pacers, who were defeated last night by the New York Knicks in Game 5 of their second-round series.

Clark included a black-and-white photo of her and McCaffery sitting together on a sofa and smiling. In the sweet snap, she leaned into him as he held her close.

McCaffery and Clark began dating in April 2023, but the couple didn’t go public with their relationship until four months later when Clark posted a photo with him on Instagram. “Best end to summer,” she captioned a carousel of pictures showing the pair cuddled together on a boat.

In January 2024, Connor posted a tribute to Clark on her 22nd birthday. “Happy birthday 22. I wish I was here to celebrate with you — you deserve the best day. The Golden Bday/T Swift year will be the best yet,” he wrote. “With all that you have already achieved, there is much more waiting for you and your special self. I admire you in every way and I love you.”
