Caitlin Clark began her professional basketball career with an awkward exchange at an Indiana Fever press conference, and before her first preseason game, it seemed to have happened again.
Clark was talking to reporters before her game against the Dallas Wings when she was asked if “bae” was going to be at the game.
“No, he’s working,” Clark said as the rest of the group chuckled. “I’m playing solo. I better get used to it, man. I’m a pro. It’s my job.”
“Bae” is synonymous with a significant other or boyfriend/girlfriend. Clark is dating former Iowa men’s basketball player Connor McCaffrey. The two recently celebrated their one-year dating anniversary.
The Fever star then scored 21 points in a 79-76 preseason loss.
“My biggest goal coming into tonight was to continue to be myself, have fun playing basketball, be aggressive – I thought that’s what I did. So, I think [I have] a lot to be proud of,” Clark told reporters after the game.
