Kate Martin was right there as her best friend and former Iowa teammate Caitlin Clark became the face of women’s college basketball the past two years. Martin was in the building when Clark was selected first in this year’s WNBA draft by Indiana. Martin also was drafted that April night.
FILE - Iowa’s Kate Martin, left, poses for a photo with WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert, right, after being selected 18th overall by the Las Vegas Aces during the second round of the WNBA basketball draft April 15, 2024, in New York. Former Iowa player Martin made the Aces opening day roster after being chosen in the second round of the WNBA draft.
Martin and Clark remain in touch, but they have not seen each other since they went to their separate WNBA teams. That changes Saturday night when the Aces host the Fever. “She’s trying to work her way into some rotations, so she’s still learning our system,” Hammon said. “She’s still learning our dos and don’ts, and so she’s going to have to learn on the fly. But what I love about her is I know what I’m getting when I put her in the game. It’s going to be effort, it’s going to be smart effort, it’s going to be tough effort.”
