  • In April 2024, Caitlin Clark and Connor McCaffery celebrated their one-year anniversary of dating.

Step aside Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce. The sports world has a new power couple: Caitlin Clark and Connor McCaffery.

The first overall pick in the WNBA Draft has been dating the former University of Iowa basketball player and Indiana Pacers team assistant since April 2023. And while the couple has kept most of their relationship private, they’ve shared a few glimpses of their romance with fans on social media, most recently celebrating their first anniversary.

As the Pacers continue their playoff run and Clark prepares for her Indiana Fever debut, here’s a breakdown of everything you need to know about their relationship.

A talented athlete in his own right, McCaffery finished his collegiate basketball career with the second-best assist-to-turnover ratio in NCAA history, Hawkeye Sports reported. The five-time Academic All-Big Ten honoree played in 166 games — the second-most appearances in Iowa program history — and won 111, all under the guidance of head coach Fran McCaffery, Connor’s father.

After graduating in 2023, McCaffery, now 25, started working for the Indiana Pacers as a team assistant with the ultimate goal of pursuing a career in coaching.

He told the Des Moines Register in May 2023, “I’ll play dummy defense, run the scout team, help coaches on film stuff, help on video projects if they need, scouting reports if they need.”

“It’s a way in. It’s an entry-level job. You’ve got to work hard and work your way up. That’s obviously what I want to do,” McCaffery added.

Clark and McCaffery started dating in April 2023 and made their relationship Instagram official in August 2023.

Clark gave fans a small look into the couple’s relationship on Instagram, sharing photos of the two looking cozy on a boat with the caption, “Best end to summer [black heart emoji].”

In January 2024, McCaffery posted a heartfelt birthday tribute to Clark on Instagram.
