The WNBA star was sitting the courtside during the Game 3 of the 2025 NBA Finals between the Indiana Pacers and the Oklahoma City Thunder. It was the first time in 25 years when Indiana hosted the NBA Finals. Almost the entire Indiana Fever squad arrived to cheer for the Pacers. <\/p><p>Clark was taking a baseline seat and she was sporting a yellow T-shirt the iconic phrase &ldquo;In 49 other states it&rsquo;s just basketball. But this is Indiana,&rdquo; alongside the Finals logo. The 2024 WNBA rookie of the year was joined by her teammates Aliyah Boston and Natasha Howard. Also courtside were Indiana basketball legends Oscar Robertson and Reggie Miller, along with Mark Jackson, Dale Davis, and other former Pacers.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Caitlin Clark, Aliyah Boston and Natasha Howard are courtside at <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Pacers?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>@Pacers<\/a> Game 3 tonight &#10084;&#65039;&zwj;&#128293; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/we8pbD3I6p\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/we8pbD3I6p<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Indiana Fever (@IndianaFever) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/IndianaFever\/status\/1932966884485279840?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>June 12, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p><strong>Also Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/wnba-legend-candace-parker-speaks-on-caitlin-clark-and-angel-reese-rivalry-criticizes-media-narrative-around-both-stars\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>WNBA Legend Candace Parker Speaks on Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese Rivalry, Criticizes Media Narrative Around Both Stars<\/a><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Indiana Pacers Improves to 8-0 when Caitlin Clark is in Attendance <\/h2><p>Pacers didn&rsquo;t disappoint the former Indiana legends and Indiana Fever squads, who came to cheer them in the NBA Finals.

Once again, the Pacers mastered the fourth quarter and went on a 14-5 run to turn the 4-opoint deficit into a 5-point lead.
