lowa women’s basketball head coach Jan Jensen, along with former head coach Lisa Bluder, and other lowa staff went to support their former lowa stars Caitlin Clark and Kate Martin in the WNBA. The two faced each other in the game between the Indiana Fever and Las Vegas Aces on Tuesday at T-Mobile Arena.
Jensen took to Instagram to share a few snippets from the game featuring Clark and Martin.

Here’s a look at some of the Instagram stories posted by Jensen:
The two former lowa teammates have been best friends since college and their relationship has remained the same since entering the league this season. Caitlin Clark was the No. 1 overall pick by the Fever in the WNBA draft while Martin was the No. 18 overall pick by the Aces.

Jan Jensen also posted a story when Clark and Martin were entering the court together, calling them “besties”:
The National Player of the Year in 2024, Clark has started in every game for the Fever so far, averaging 16.0 ppg, 5.7 rpg and 7.1 apg while shooting 39.1%. On the other hand, Martin has not been a starter, averaging 3.6 ppg, 2.1 rpg and 1.1 apg so far.

The level of basketball when playing with the top players of the globe is undoubtedly higher than college basketball. As a result, the two former lowa stars are still settling into the professional game, especially Clark, after averaging 31.6 ppg in college last season.
