Watch: Caitlin Clark hyped after witnessing Tyrese Haliburton's hot 3-point shooting
Caitlin Clark was hyped as she witnessed a 3-point shooting clinic from Tyrese Haliburton on Monday. Clark, accompanied by her boyfriend Connor McCaffery, attended the Indiana Pacers’ game against the New Orleans Pelicans at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.
Seated courtside in Haliburton’s reserved seats, Clark had the perfect view as the Pacers guard delivered an electrifying performance. With the reigning WNBA Rookie of the Year in attendance, Haliburton, who has struggled with his shooting this season, found his rhythm and sank seven 3-pointers through three quarters.
After Haliburton nailed his seventh 3-pointer over Daniel Theis from the top of the key, Clark couldn’t contain her excitement, rising from her seat to acknowledge his remarkable shooting display.
