Caitlin Clark and Connor McCaffery have been dating for over a year. Here's a timeline of 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 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]."

"Happy Birthday 22," he wrote, referencing her jersey number, which is a nod to her birth date: January 22. This year, she turned 22.

He continued, "Wish I was there to celebrate with you - you deserve the best day [red heart emoji] Golden Bday / T Swift year will be the best yet. With all that you've already accomplished, there is so much more in store for you and your special self. I admire you in every way and I love you."

He shared the message alongside multiple photos of the couple throughout their relationship.

The couple, who were long-distance at the time, shared a funny exchange in the comments, with Clark questioning McCaffery's status as a true Taylor Swift fan, writing, "acting like u a T swift fan tho is crazy, but I will let this slide hehe."

"I am for you," McCaffery replied with several laughing emojis and prayer hands.

Clark broke the NCAA women's scoring record in the February 15, 2024, game against Michigan, which Iowa won 106-89.

She finished the game with a career total of 3,569 points, surpassing Kelsey Plum's previous record of 3,527 points. The following month, she would break the all-time NCAA scoring record.

In addition to attending the game on February 15, McCaffery shared his support online, writing in an Instagram Story, "So proud" and "Love you 22" with a video of Clark's record-breaking 3-pointer that allowed her to reach the milestone, People reported.

After Iowa's loss in the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament championship in April, McCaffery shared a photo of Clark leaving the court in an Instagram Story, calling her "My GOAT."

Clark finished her career at Iowa with 3,951 points and a slew of athletic accolades, including Big Ten Player of the Year, Most Outstanding Player in the Big Ten Tournament, and the NCAA record for most 3-pointers in a single season, ESPN reported.

Clark posted a black-and-white image of the couple seemingly taken after the WNBA Draft, with the caption, "one year of the best mems w my fav person."

"you make everyday better and I can't wait for many more adventures together… I love you," she added.

McCaffery posted his own anniversary tribute, too, sharing another black-and-white photo of the couple laughing.

"One year w the best [heart hands emoji] doing life w u has been easy, and you never cease to amaze me.. can't wait to watch u live out ur dreams in person," he wrote.

As part of the tribute, he also posted a slow-motion video of Clark rolling her eyes during a game, prompting Clark to reply, "Nice video," and McCaffery responding, "best ever."

"It's great, obviously it makes the transition a little bit easier," Clark told IndyStar about having a support system already waiting for her in Indianapolis.

"You've got people that know the city, and obviously Connor being there is tremendous. I couldn't imagine a better place to start my professional career," she added.

McCaffery's brother, Patrick McCaffery, will also be in the area, having recently announced his transfer to Butler University for basketball.

Clark and Connor McCaffery commented on Patrick's post on Instagram, writing, "Indy takeover" and "I'll let u in on my city," respectively, showing how the two families are familiar with each other.

Just over a week after appearing at her introductory Indiana Fever press conference, Clark was back in Indianapolis to support McCaffery and the Pacers in the team's third playoff game against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Before the game, Clark helped excite the crowd by "pumping the accelerator of a replica IndyCar," AP News reported. During the second quarter, she and her Fever teammates threw T-shirts into the stands to a roar of applause from her soon-to-be home fans at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

Ahead of Clark's Fever debut in a few weeks, her jersey has already sold out. The excitement surrounding Clark has led to the cost of the team's ticket sales nearly tripling since last season, NPR reported. All 10 of the WNBA's most expensive regular season games of the 2024 season were for Fever games, Forbes reported, citing data from ticket website Gametime.
