Connor was the last child that Ava and Charles had and is easily the apple of his father’s eyes and favorite son, his sister being the only girl and favorite daughter. Connor grew up in the political ups and downs when it came to life in Pittsburgh and around the Fraiser’s. Unlike his other two siblings though he preferred to step back from the high life of partying and bad behavior for the most part instead focusing on getting good grades and good behavior. Part of that being the reason that he and Lex are so at odds at times, from an early age he was naturally talented in sports and when he hit high school that flourished even more. He attended Willford Preparatory Academy and graduated with honors. Afterwards instead of going to a prestigious school like his siblings he chose Atlas Falls University were he played college ball.
Not quite sure how far basketball would get him he got his undergraduate degree in economics and business management figuring if ever needed he could work at the conglomerate. He attends board meetings there when he needs to much to his father’s dismay and usually will pick either one of his siblings to vote when he can’t make it for him. He was a junior when he decided to enter the draft and was taken in the third round for the local pro team the Atlas Hawks. He’s never really had a steady girlfriend that has ever lasted more then a few months at a time and he is pretty street smart with girls and their tricks. Belle Devonshire had caught his eye and the two causally saw each other for a bit last year when she arrived in Atlas Falls. He knows that eventually he wants to marry a girl and settle down just not right now in his life. Last year when Khalil was taken in the first round and joined the Hawks he decided to reach out and make sure he was welcomed and they have been forming a friendship since then.
