While Caitlin Clark was busy launching her WNBA season with a commanding win over the Chicago Sky, another power couple was making headlines off the court.
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and his wife Brittany Mahomes hosted their annual 15 and the Mahomies Foundation Vegas Golf Classic this past weekend-a high-profile charity event that drew major attention.
After the gala, Brittany posted a heartfelt thank-you message on Instagram along with glamorous photos from the event. And while Clark wasn’t in Las Vegas to attend, the Indiana Fever star made her presence known in a subtle way: she liked the post.
Though small, the gesture didn’t go unnoticed. Clark has long been a fan of the Chiefs and attended their Divisional Round playoff game against the Houston Texans back in January. Her visit to Arrowhead Stadium included time spent in the VIP suite alongside Taylor Swift, who was there supporting boyfriend Travis Kelce.
The bond between Clark and the Mahomes family seems to be growing, even if only through quiet digital nods. Her acknowledgment of Brittany’s post suggests mutual admiration and perhaps hints at a wider support system forming between rising and established stars across sports.
Fever dominance and Chiefs camaraderie collide
While the Mahomeses were making philanthropic waves in Las Vegas, Caitlin Clark was making headlines in Indiana. She led her team to a dominant 93-58 victory over Angel Reese and the Sky in the Fever’s season opener.
Clark tallied 20 points, 10 rebounds, 10 assists, and four blocks, putting up the third triple-double of her young WNBA career. Aliyah Boston contributed a double-double of her own, and Natasha Howard added 15 points in her Fever debut.
Despite being focused on the court, Clark didn’t miss the chance to show some love to Brittany Mahomes, whose foundation continues to make a significant impact through charitable efforts.
Brittany, a co-owner of the Kansas City Current in the NWSL, has steadily built her own brand of influence in the sports world.
As Brittany captioned her Instagram post, she was full of gratitude for the people who helped make the gala and golf event a success. In the photos, she and Patrick posed together in formal attire, and the post quickly picked up traction among fans-including Clark.
Given Clark‘s connections to Kansas City, including her time at Arrowhead and her support for the Chiefs, some fans are already speculating about future appearances from the Mahomeses and Swift at a Fever home game this season.
Whether it’s friendship, fandom, or mutual respect, the links between these sports stars continue to grow.
With four more matchups between Indiana and Chicago on the calendar, and the possibility of more high-profile guests showing up courtside, the WNBA spotlight isn’t dimming anytime soon-and Clark is clearly at the center of it all.
