Former Iowa Hawkeyes Caitlin Clark and Kate Martin have remained best friends since joining the WNBA, even
though they are now on different coasts. Martin has joined the Las Vegas Aces, but Clark is still with the Indiana
Fever.Their frequent interactions on social media attest to the continued strength of their connection, which started
when they were roommates at Iowa. Martin captioned a photo she took on Monday of herself with the Aces on
Instagram, saying, “I love my job.” The post went viral very fast, especially because of Clark’s touching comments.
Famous for her explosive performance on the court, Clark revealed her more vulnerable side by responding with an
impassioned “love you.” Fans responded favorably to this message, demonstrating the close relationship between the
two athletes. Not content to stop there, Clark also addressed a reference to Martin’s mother, Jill, in one of the
pictures. She added, “Just here for jilly bean,” referring to Martin’s mother by a nickname she knew well,
emphasizing how close they were.
Fans will find solace in the story of Clark and Martin’s continued friendship, which shows that despite their
geographical distance and work obligations, they still have a close bond.
The next time the former Hawkeyes take the court is scheduled for September 11, a date that fans eagerly await. They
continue to cheer each other on and support one another’s accomplishments in the interim.
