Regarding the pressure friend Caitlin Clark is under, Tyrese Haliburton says, “Everyone wants to take more from her.”

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.”
