Caitlin Clark gets huge welcome in Indiana as she cheers Pacers to incredible NBA playoff win over Knicks… as Tyrese Haliburton and Co win thriller 111-106 over New York

As WNBA star Caitlin Clark watched from the stands, she saw her new city of Indianapolis celebrate as the Indiana Pacers pulled off a resounding victory to clinch their first victory in the series against the New York Knicks.

Clark, who was selected first overall by the Indiana Fever in the WNBA draft, was hoping to be a good luck charm as she watched alongside her boyfriend and Pacers employee Connor McCaffery.

After trailing early in the fourth quarter, Indiana was able to come back to win 111-106 and make it a 2-1 series.

Tyrese Haliburton led the way for Indiana with 35 points while Myles Turner, Aaron Nesmith and Pascal Siakam also had double-digit performances.

As for the Knicks, guard Donte DiVincenzo dropped an incredible 35 points as a hobbled Jalen Brunson shot 10-26 for 26 points.

With 16.4 seconds left, Andrew Nembhard hit a triple dagger to go up 109-106. Brunson missed a wild 3-pointer to turn the ball over and two free throws secured the victory for Indiana.

THIS IS A DEVELOPING STORY. MORE SOON.
