T.J. McConnell rocks sister Megan’s WNBA jersey before Pacers’ riveting Game 1 rally
NY Post
Not even the most stylish designer threads could have topped T.J. McConnell’s pregame outfit for Game 1 of the NBA Finals on Thursday night.
The Pacers guard showed up to Oklahoma City’s Paycom Center repping the new WNBA jersey of his sister, Megan, who signed with the Phoenix Mercury on Tuesday.
And it was only fitting for Megan to return the favor.
She arrived at the Mercury’s game Thursday night against the Golden State Valkyries rocking her brother’s Pacers jersey, although she was sidelined with an injury.
Perhaps the gestures were a good luck charm for both McConnells, as the Mercury rolled to an 86-77 win and the Pacers captured a thrilling 111-110 triumph over the Thunder after a stunning fourth-quarter comeback.
The highlight was Tyrese Haliburton’s go-ahead jumper with 0.3 seconds remaining, which gave Indiana its first lead of the game after trailing by double-digits most of the way.
