Indiana Fever star Caitlin Clark sent a heartfelt message to Las Vegas Aces guard Kate Martin

Caitlin Clark’s rise in the WNBA as a rookie sensation is a continuation of her storied career that began with an illustrious tenure at Iowa. Her college journey not only showcased her exceptional talent on the court but also forged a deep bond with teammate Kate Martin, now with the Las Vegas Aces after being drafted 18th overall in 2024. Despite no longer playing together, their enduring friendship was evident in a touching social media interaction on Monday.

Clark and Martin, who reached two national championship games together at Iowa, maintain a strong bond that transcends their current WNBA teams. Despite facing each other twice at the professional level, with Las Vegas emerging victorious both times, their connection remains unbreakable.

While Clark is in the midst of an incredible rookie campaign, Martin’s has been a bit more challenging from a basketball standpoint. Appearing in 19 games for Las Vegas this season, Martin is averaging 15.2 minutes per game. That said, the former Iowa star has converted on 38.3% of her 3-point attempts, which is a solid clip.

WNBA fans have fallen in love with the friendship Martin and Clark share, as the two remain incredibly excited to see each other whenever crossing paths. This was most recently seen before the latest Fever vs. Aces game, as Clark and Martin shared an emotional embrace:
