The 22-year-old WNBA rookie was all smiles when she met a fan’s two-week old baby at the Fever Fore Change golf outing, presented by HYPTE Branded Solution, on Thursday, Aug. 15.
The Fever shared a video of the meeting on X (formerly known as Twitter), where an excited Clark got to hold the young baby and sign the youngster’s onesie.

Clark said the baby was “so cute” and told the mother that the two-week-old is the “youngest [fan] to get an autograph” from the basketball star.
“I signed an ultrasound one time,” Clark said of another time she shared her autograph with a fan. “But actually, living in the world, yeah,” she added, confirming that the baby holds the record for youngest Clark fan to score a signature.
The Fever said in another post on X that the Fever Fore Change golf outing “allows players, partners and season ticket holders to celebrate raising money for women & girls in Indiana through the Pacers and the Fever Foundation.”
During the charitable afternoon, Clark joined teammates for a round of golf, including a competitive matchup with her teammate Lexie Hull.
The event comes just days after the Indiana Fever were announced as the hosts of the 2025 WNBA All-Star Game. “Indy’s got next,” the Fever wrote in a post announcing that the weekend would be held in Indianapolis.
The WNBA season took an extended break after the 2024 All-Star Weekend in Phoenix to accommodate the league’s players participating in the Paris Summer Olympics, where they won gold over France in a thrilling final during the Games.
For Clark, the Olympic break allowed her to enjoy a getaway to Mexico with her boyfriend, Connor McCaffery, and teammates, including Hull and Katie Lou Samuelson.
On July 13, McCaffery celebrated his 26th birthday and Clark penned a sweet tribute to him on Instagram for the occasion. “Happy Birthday Con! Celebrating you is easy 🙂 thankful to have someone as selfless and as loving as you in my life🖤 ,” Clark wrote. “May this be the year you finally find a way to outshoot me 😉 Love you always 🥺🤍.”
