Caitlin Clark draws honest admission from Tyrese Maxey

Caitlin Clark is one of the best and most popular basketball players in the world. She has fans from different parts of the globe and has also earned the respect of her fellow athletes. One of them is Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey, who gave an honest admission on Wednesday about the Indiana Fever star.

Clark was in attendance at Gainbridge Fieldhouse to watch the Indiana Pacers take on Maxey and his team. She garnered attention at the venue and on social media after the Pacers posted photos of her sitting courtside. The 24-year-old is coming off her best pro season, leading the Fever to a 28-16 record and qualifying for the playoffs. She also broke several WNBA records and earned her third straight All-Star nod.

Meanwhile, Maxey serves as the primary playmaker of the 76ers’ star-studded lineup. He is a two-time All-Star and widely considered one of the brightest young stars in the NBA.
