Clark and her boyfriend walked the red carpet at the Golden Gala fundraiser in Indianapolis to support the Pacers Foundation

Caitlin Clark and her boyfriend, Connor McCaffery, traded in their basketball jerseys for a glamorous evening at the Golden Gala fundraiser in Indiana. The couple stepped out on Sunday, October 20, to support the Indiana Pacers Foundation, showcasing their elegant style on the red carpet.

22-year-old Clark, a rising star in the WNBA, looked stunning in a strapless black dress paired with silver heels. McCaffery, 26, complemented her look in a smart grey suit jacket and black dress pants, creating a fashionable duo that turned heads at the event.

The gala took place at the upscale Indianapolis restaurant, Commission Row, providing a chic backdrop for the evening’s festivities. The Indiana Fever shared moments from the event on social media, highlighting the couple’s appearance: “@caitlinclark22 spent the evening at the Golden Gala fundraiser benefiting the Pacers Foundation last night.”

Their presence at the fundraiser not only showcased their commitment to philanthropy but also highlighted the couple’s strong bond, making it a memorable night for both. As they continue to shine in their respective careers, Clark and McCaffery demonstrate that they can seamlessly blend glamour with a dedication to giving back.

Clark was also spotted in photos from the gala with Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton — who won the gold medal with Team USA in Paris this summer — during the event.

In a photo shared by the Pacers, the NBA team called Haliburton, 24, and Clark “Indy’s point guards” in a post on X (formerly known as Twitter).

Clark is enjoying her first WNBA offseason since the Fever were eliminated from the playoffs in September.

On Oct. 14, she and McCaffery were spotted enjoiyng another date night in Indianapolis to support the Pacers in their preseason game against the Memphis Grizzlies.

Clark and McCaffery, the son of legendary Iowa coach Fran McCaffery, met as student-athletes at the University of Iowa before pursuing their respective careers in basketball.

McCaffery worked as a team assistant for the Pacers last season — while his girlfriend was selected first overall in the 2024 WNBA Draft for their sister team the Fever — before taking an assistant coaching position on Butler University’s men’s basketball team this fall.

Clark’s first season in the WNBA was nothing short of historic. The Fever star started all 40 games for Indiana in her rookie season, averaging 19.2 points, 8.4 assists (a WNBA high, per the league), 5.7 rebounds and 1.33 steals.

The WNBA All-Star also led the rookie class in assists, points, steals and minutes played this season, and she also had the league’s second-highest percentage in free throw shooting with 90.6% accuracy.
