Caitlin Clark Reacts to Indiana Pacers' Comeback Performance

WNBA superstar and Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark had a simple yet powerful five-word reaction on social media following the Indiana Pacers’ thrilling Game 1 victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder in the NBA Finals. The Pacers swung home-court advantage after Tyrese Haliburton scored the game-winning mid-range jump shot to seal a 111-110 victory at Paycom Center.

“You can’t make it up,” Clark wrote in all caps in a post on X.

Clark has been a dedicated supporter of the Pacers throughout the season and has been spotted at several home games for the Pacers this postseason.

The 2024 All-WNBA First Team guard describes the Pacers as the “greatest comeback team” she has ever seen.

Each comeback Indiana has staged throughout this postseason has followed a familiar script: erasing a late double-digit deficit, capped by a phenomenal clutch shot from Tyrese Haliburton—who is a perfect 4-for-4 in the final two seconds of fourth quarters and overtimes in these playoffs.

Remember when Haliburton was voted the most overrated player by some of his NBA peers?

Those same people should call him Mr. Clutch.

“When it comes to the moments, [Tyrese Haliburton] wants the ball,” Pacers Center Myles Turner said. “He wants to be the one to hit that shot. He doesn’t shy away from the moment, and it’s very important this time of the year to have a go-to guy. He just keeps finding a way, and we keep putting the ball in the right positions, and the rest is history.”

In his NBA Finals debut, Haliburton will look to continue his legendary quest—to silence doubters and hoist the Larry O’Brien Championship Trophy.
