As her first season in the WNBA progresses, Caitlin Clark is receiving support from a former teammate and fellow rookie.
When speaking to the media on Monday, Las Vegas Aces guard Kate Martin came to the defense of Clark — her close friend and four-year Iowa teammate — and the pressure created by those on the outside.
“Caitlin’s phenomenal, and she’s having a great rookie season. I think people are really hard on her and expecting her to be perfect,” Martin said. “That’s unrealistic, right?”Former Iowa Hawkeyes teammates Caitlin Clark #22 of the Indiana Fever and Kate Martin #20 of the Las Vegas Aces greet each other on the court.Martin also extolled Clark’s qualities off the court and said that she’d always have her back.
