Caitlin Clark stayed winless against her former Iowa running mate, Kate Martin, after Thursday's 88-77 loss to the Golden State Valkyries. Clark produced one of her worst outings in the WNBA after tallying 11 points and committing six turnovers, shooting only 3 of 14. She missed all of her seven 3-point shots.
On the other hand, Martin had a solid outing. In 20 minutes off the bench, she made four field goals on seven attempts, one more than Clark, while adding five rebounds. The Valkyries overturned a 13-point deficit to complete a successful comeback and improve to 6-6 on the season.
Prior to Thursday's game, as per Statmuse, Martin had faced Clark twice in an Aces uniform last year and won both games. She's now 3-0 against the Fever superstar. While Martin's direct contributions haven't been game-altering, it's still an intriguing record, considering Clark's struggles against her teams.
Fever fans were concerned about Caitlin Clark following this loss, relating it to Kate Martin's presence on the other end. Here are some of the reactions:
I am starting to wonder if Caitlin Clark has a mental block when playing Kate Martin. She has yet to play a good game against her. Must be hard seeing your best friend in another uniform.
Lol, for the haters it’s actually 5-0.
Kate Martin is Caitlin Clark Kent's Kryptonite
Kate Martin has a spell on Caitlin Clark.
Can we ban Kate for pre game dinner dates?
