Pacers beat Knicks to reach NBA Finals with Caitlin Clark in attendance
The Indiana Pacers have clinched a spot in the NBA Finals after a thrilling victory over the New York Knicks in the Eastern Conference Finals. The Pacers had a special guest in attendance for the game, none other than WNBA star Caitlin Clark. Clark, who is currently sidelined from the Indiana Fever due to a quad injury, was joined by her teammates Sophie Cunningham and Aliyah Boston as they cheered on the Pacers to a 125-108 Game 6 win.
Clark has been a familiar face at Pacers games since joining the WNBA last year and has formed a close friendship with Pacers star Tyrese Haliburton. Haliburton put on a stellar performance in Saturday’s game, contributing 21 points and 13 rebounds to help secure the victory, while Pascal Siakam added 31 points to the scoreboard. Remarkably, the Pacers have remained undefeated in the seven games that Clark has attended as a fan.
After a stunning comeback in Game 1 of the series, where the Pacers erased a 14-point deficit in the final three minutes, Clark took to social media to express her excitement, calling the Pacers the “greatest comeback team” she has ever seen. With the win over the Knicks, the Pacers are now set to face off against the Oklahoma City Thunder in the NBA Finals, much to the delight of Clark and Pacers fans alike.
As for the Knicks, they will head into the offseason with a sense of disappointment after missing out on a chance to reach the finals. Despite a strong playoff run, the Knicks fell short in the conference finals, marking their first appearance at that stage since 2000.
