Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton explained how he became close with Fever star Caitlin Clark.
Haliburton, who attended a number of Fever games this season, was asked about how his and Clark’s relationship blossomed throughout her rookie year — and he revealed it started with her boyfriend, Connor McCaffery, a former team assistant for the Pacers.
“I grew pretty close with Connor McCaffery being an intern with [the Pacers] last year and I’ve grown to be pretty close with Caitlin and him,” Haliburton said at Pacers media day Monday.
“Me, her, him and my girlfriend Jade all have a group chat that we talk in pretty often about everything.
“So it’s been cool to just grow a friendship with her. I don’t want to be — everybody just wants to like get more from her, take more from her, get more answers to things and I don’t want to be that. We’re friends and I think that that’s a cool part if she wants to talk basketball, we’ll talk basketball. If not, I’m totally fine with that as well. But I think we’ve grown a pretty cool friendship alongside Connor.”
