Clark was seen sitting courtside at Game 3 of the NBA Finals, along with Aliyah Boston and Natasha Howard. Lexie Hull, Sophie Cunningham, Aari McDonald and Makayla Timpson were also present at the contest, although they appeared to be sitting in different seats.
With Clark and company watching, the Pacers didn't disappoint against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Tyrese Haliburton led the way for Indiana with a near triple-double of 22 points, nine rebounds and 11 assists.
Bennedict Mathurin also stepped up big time for the Pacers off the bench, exploding for 27 points on 9-of-12 shooting. Indiana proceeded to take the 116-107 win, giving them a 2-1 lead in the series.

Caitlin Clark has been showing non-stop support for the Pacers throughout the NBA Playoffs. In fact, when Indiana's NBA franchise won Game 1 of the Finals thanks to Tyrese Haliburton's game-winner, she was also among the first ones to react.
The Pacers will return to action on Friday for Game 4 of their series with the Thunder. The Fever, for their part, don't have a game that day, so hopes are high that Clark will come to watch the showdown again.

Thunder vs. Pacers odds, predictions: NBA Finals Game 4 player props, picks, best bets
New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. For the first time in these NBA Finals, there is just one off day between games. In my eyes, that is a difference-maker and has to play a role in the Game 4 analysis. Oddsmakers formulate betting lines by using statistics from the entire season. Intelligent bettors swear by the importance of a large sample size, but I think the playoffs are a different animal and should be treated as such. That means, in my eyes, the regular-season data should be viewed with a grain of salt. The Oklahoma City Thunder are a six-point favorite at the Indiana Pacers on Friday, even though they are 0-8 Against The Spread (ATS) on the road this postseason. Plus, despite being favored in all eight games, they only won half of them. I lean to Indy catching the points, but my favorite play involves a proposition bet surrounding Chet Holmgren, largely because of the quick turnaround between games. The 7-foot-1 Holmgren is listed at just 208 pounds and looks even thinner. His slight frame has inhibited his production through this postseason. Chet Holmgren during Game 3. AP Prior to grabbing 10 rebounds in Game 3, his rebounds prop cashed the Under in seven straight games. A few factors caused the outlier double-digit rebounding game that will not repeat for Friday's game. After logging 35 minutes, which was his highest since the second round, Holmgren was visibly fatigued during the fourth quarter. In fact, he needed to sub out after logging just 2:40 and returned one minute later. Even with that quick rest, he was pushed around and had his shot blocked three times. Betting on the NBA? I highly doubt OKC coach Mark Daigneault will increase Holmgren's minutes again, thus you can figure him to return to his usual allotment of around 27 minutes. I believe we will see more playing time for center Isaiah Hartenstein, and that will inhibit Holmgren's production on the glass. I have a 50-40-1 ATS record in this Post sports section, and my next play is Holmgren Under 8.5 rebounds (-105, BetMGM) in Game 4.

How an insurance company is using entertainment to promote insurance education in Africa
When Suits, the globally acclaimed American television series hit the screens in 2011, no one could have predicted the cultural phenomenon it would become. Centered around the glamorous world of corporate attorneys and set against the fast-paced backdrop of New York's legal battleground, Suits took what many considered a dull profession and transformed it into prime-time magic. The success of Suits proved quite clearly that any industry, no matter how traditionally unglamorous and ambiguous it has been perceived, can be made interesting when it is presented through emotional depth and cultural relevance. My love for Suits amplified my excitement when I learned that Heirs Insurance Group was developing the first-ever insurance web series in Africa. It's objective: to promote insurance education and drive insurance penetration in Nigeria and across the continent. The reasons behind the project are stark: insurance penetration in Nigeria is less than 1% and across Africa, less than 3%, far less global averages. On a continent with a higher low-middle class, it is paradoxical that insurance is not a default for everyone. The project objective was ambitious. It was, therefore, both refreshing and inspiring to see Heirs Insurance Group take such a bold and creative step, leveraging entertainment, particularly film, to educate, inform, and spark interest in an industry that is not quite understood or readly accepted by the masses. The Underwriters: Where Insurance Meets Entertainment At first glance, pairing insurance with filmmaking feels like seeing a ballerina walk into a boxing ring; two worlds that rarely intersect. Surprisingly, Heirs Insurance Group pulled it off. Launched in the tail end of 2024, their film series tagged 'The Underwriters' took the digital space by surprise, quickly amassing hundreds of thousands of views across YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook within the first month of premiering. It told a simple love story set in an insurance company but with the lives of everyday people woven intricately to educate the audience of the importance of insurance. But more than the numbers, what truly stood out was how deeply the show resonated with its viewers. Real-life scenarios rooted in everyday realities, told the story of how truly relevant insurance could be if more people understood and embraced it. One of the major hindrances to insurance penetration in Nigeria is the widely held perception that the profession is meant for the 'experts' or highly knowledgeable people. However, Heirs Insurance Group did the unexpected: they plugged into the African love for exciting and emotionally engaging motion pictures, reimagining insurance and demystifying stereotypes, while also entertaining the audience. In the same way, Suits made corporate law thrilling by humanising its characters and placing the audience in the high-stakes decisions of legal professionals, 'The Underwriters' does the same with insurance. It does not just dramatise policy sales or claim settlements, it brings them to life, making the viewers experience the everyday life of an insurance professional. With the project, people could finally understand what insurance meant for everyone. Creativity with Intentionality What made 'The Underwriters' an instant hit is the intentionality. The web series was not a random idea thrown together in a boardroom. It was the product of a bold strategy by Heirs Insurance Group to reinvent how insurance is perceived, especially by younger, digitally native Africans. The objective was to make insurance a lifestyle and present its value in a simple and understandable manner. Dismantling the many myths around insurance, like the notion that insurers never pay claims or that insurance is only for the wealthy and educated, or for the religious, the notion of faith answering all, Heirs Insurance Group was intentional in making sure the series serves both as a brand-building tool and a platform for public enlightenment and awareness. Meeting the Market Where It Is – The Power of Digital Know-how In today's world, the audience wants to be served at the comforts of their devices. They would rather binge-watch a web series on YouTube or scroll through reels on Instagram. This is where Heirs Insurance has shown true creativity. Rather than wait for the market to come to them, they have gone to the market in its language, on its platforms, and through its cultural lenses. The series is available online, so anyone anywhere can watch. And the results speak for themselves. With nearly 200k views, the web series has sparked real conversations, prompting questions and comments around insurance. Some of the comments from viewers include: 'Breathtaking mindset, I love it trust me. First insurance movie in the federation and industry as a whole... 'This was an interesting watch. What better way to learn about insurance and be entertained while at it' From far away, Zimbabwe, one viewer said, 'I'm a Claims Examiner in Zimbabwe, and I am enjoying the series. Well done team. Heirs Insurance Group is not just trying to market products, it is overhauling mindsets. By tapping into entertainment, the Group has managed to change the tone of the industry, from cold to cool, from aloof to approachable and inclusive. And in a space where so many brands are fighting for attention, this makes all the difference. In the end, The Underwriters is not just a clever piece of communication, it is a bold declaration that insurance can be as much a part of your lifestyle as your fashion choices or streaming preferences.
