sitting in a crowd supporting CC and suddenly hearing in slow motion, KATE .........MARTIN, who me? that's a persons all time dream.
she was in the stands! Totally not expecting that. I think she knew bc there were cameras pointing right at her. She totally deserves this 💛
How does a team not give their 2nd pick some kind of clue beforehand
@@bangbangbang5501 she was dressed casual, and her coach mouthed the words oh my god. even Gabby Marshal was shedding a tear
@@mikelipke9404 yesyes gabbie was teary eyed 🥹 and apparently she sat in the middle of the row and before her name got called, someone told her to move seats and had one of her teammates hold her phone. So proud 💪🥹
@@CodyCha The draft isn't predecided, teams adjust their choices live as picks come off the board.
I hope Kate Martin will someday be known more than simply being Caitlin Clark teammate.
Same..I want her to have equal success
When she marry and NBA player, she’ll be famous. 💯
@@richardnyahoe8172she’s a lesbian
I think that she will do very well --> players like this are so undervalued.
Kate who
More than just Caitlin Clark’s teammate! Kate is a great player and is very deserving of this opportunity. Congrats!!
Thank you for using a bit of grammar.
I didn't know that she had even entered the draft! Congratulations.
Fr I thought it was rumors and she wanted to do coaching but I stand corrected and very happy with that
@@MsMaggles2 Yeah, she did say that. If she gets cut, she can join the Fever with Caitlin. Kate's and Caitlin's ex-teammate Monika Czinano was drafted in the 2023, but she got cut and then she played in Europe.
She was either out of eligibility or decided not to use her extra covid year, same as Caitlin. I don't know as much about basketball, but assuming if it's anything like how nfl draft works, her college coaches were probably able to do an evaluation and get some intel on her chances of being drafted & how early. Considering where she went which seems right around the middle, if they knew there was much of a chance she probably figured why not give it a shot, is my guess
She ran out of eligibility and went to the WNBA combine last week and I guess the Aces like her. Awesome story
@TheODLawson23 she won't get cut the top 20 picks hardly ever do on any team unless she's a bust. Her salary will be a rookies salary which is around 75000 but theirs plenty of room for her to earn endorsements and sign up for a wnba marketing deal
Kate: yeah I just woke up and thought I’d come hang out with y’all, appreciate ya drafting me to the #1 team in the league
Lmfao I just watched last night’s post game interview and had to find this video. Awesome how much they love her
Kate Martin is going to be an awesome WNBA player
You heard Holly "can you make that roster" she knows Kate might not even be on the team
She’s going to get cut. They cut half the 1rd picks
@@slimydick23Kate will make the most of it. She might be a player that only comes in when the game gets out of hand but I think she will have a spot on the team
She's going to have to battle for a roster spot. Martin had one very good season out of 5 with Iowa. Before this season she was just a role player. It is tough to make a WNBA roster because there aren't that many teams.
If she gets cut then she should go to Indiana with Clark, everyone is a good duo with Clark but they were besties.
Imagine tickets sale for Aces VS Fever. Assuming KM will even see some action guarding CC.
You know who’s gonna win though lol
lol.
Gotta make the team first literally gonna be hard to even do that in the wnba barely no spots
@@frost-lx9by facts
Omggggg please!!!! 😍
Kate Martin put in some real needed buckets this last tournament run.
She is absolutely drop-dead gorgeous, Kate Martin.
@@marcdaddy33she is an underrated defender at 5’9’
@@marcdaddy33 yes we need to mention this! 💯
Should see her girlfriend. Would put any supermodel to shame
Getting drafted to the best team in the league is a blessing! Gonna learn a lot even if only a little time spent. Might get a ring to jump start that career.
Good for Kate! One of the unsung players of Iowa always taking a back seat to Clark. And good for Las Vegas to recognize her talents. Goooo Kate!!!! She was always my favorite along with Gabbie.
The fact that she didn’t even expect to get called is wild… I wish her well in Vegas!
That is so wild
She wasnt but during commercial break, they moved her from the audience section down to where the hopeful drafts players sit and stuck a camera on her. She put two and two together, and thats why she was not surprised when they call her name.
Honestly she was my favorite on the Iowa team. Such a solid player that can do it all. Congrats!!!!
My favorite part of the draft. So glad Kate Martin will get this amazing opportunity
I haven't watched a lot of WNBA - that will change this year. But just based on the way she plays,. I feel like you'd want her on the floor. She won't by your star or generate her own offense, but she ain't gonna hurt you out there. She hits jump shots and D's up. I'm rootin for her.
This was the best pick of the draft, such a surprise. I was hoping that she would get picked in the 3rd round by the Indiana Fever. But 18th is incredible. Really hope she makes the roster.
Thriving a month later
Congratulations, Kate!!! Heard your mom this morning (4/16/24) on the Dwyer & Michaels morning radio show. Everyone is so proud of you and happy for you. When the Aces play the Fever, I will be cheering for both teams.
The coolest moment for sure so happy for her well deserved!
I swear I have watched this video 1000 times!!! ❤️ I’m so happy for Kate!!!
Im SO HAPPY she went to my team! Money Martin is incredible
It’s crazy bc ppl don’t give her enough flowers she is a great player on Iowa the second best and she deserves this more than anything
People around CC turned into beasts in Iowa. What an energy
I love kate martin's game. So glad she came back for her 5th year.
ikr. I think now shes really thankful Caitlin begged her to stay 😅 and she made the best decision
She can really play
She has a really smooth turnaround jumper
I was ecstatic when I heard them call her name, she is so deserving of a chance to be in the WNBA.
Martin was/is underrated and will be explosive player. Just sit back and watch!
Wholeheartedly agree. Kate is underrated- talented, has skill, poise, confidence and a good ball handler.
Bro the title says Caitlyn Clark's Iowa teammate... What are you doing Espn
they're doing exactly what State Farm pays them to do and it's disgusting
For more views. I don’t blame them 😂
@@kingasif9265 not even that complicated, they have a contractual agreement with State Farm to mention CC even when they shouldn't in order to keep the money flowing
@@slimydick23mention her when? How often? You don’t know what you’re talking about lmao
@@slimydick23it’s even less complicated than that, she played on the same team as Caitlin Clark, the most widely recognized female basketball player on earth
I love Kate Martin.Sooo humble and smart..and hardworking basketball player..hoping for the best in the yrs to come
So happy for Kate!!! She deserves this!! She had an amazing final season and tournament run!!! It's even more amazing that she'll be reunited with her former Iowa teammate, Megan Gustafson on the LV Aces!!!
Congratulations to Kate. She is great!
She has potential to be a great player. Her game alongside superstars reminded me a lot of NBA players like Draymond Green, Udonis Haslem, , Bobby Portis, etc. A truly smart team player!
Agreed
I'm not even gonna lie this is my first time seeing the WNBA Draft, and its amazing!!
I was so happy Kate got in I was screaming jumping up and down and crying at the same time. Caitlin getting the #1 pick and Kate getting in. Lisa Bluder just became my favorite coach above Mike Tomlin even.
Go Kate!! You'll love it here in Vegas!!
Go Kate! You deserve it! Now you have that opportunity you've been asking for! Celebrate and then time to get to work!
Icing on the cake! You are a class act, Kate ❤ We love you and we are so proud. God Bless and stay you ☺
Capt. Glue..so proud and happy for you!!!!
Kate, congratulations. You made it to the WNBA 2X champions, Las Vegas Aces. God bless 🙏 From the Philippines 🇵🇭
Uy, another Filipino fan 😊
Kate Martin to Caitlyn Clark in WNCAA is like Scottie Pippen to Michael Jordan in NBA. But now things will be changing with regards to their journey in WNBA. But i think their friendship will always be there.
Kate!!!!!
Go Kate!!!
Kate Martin is a great player. Catlin brought the people to watch. But Kate went out in every game a did her thing. She's a great player, team mate and human. Love this! Can't wait to watch her play! 💛
Im glad she's in, knew she would get drafted if she entered.
Shes great.
She will be an awesome collegiate coach at some point
How did she get so lucky!? Wow! Awesome! She might get limited court time at first but this could be the perfect fit for one of the hardest working college players! 2WP!!!
She earned it. Watching those games, besides the deep threes, she was dropping buckets like Caitlin
We wanted them TOGETHER
The best thing about Kate Martinis she has a big kind heart. The way she helped out a friend Ava showed me that.
I hope that Kate Martin will be picked by Indiana as she can regather with Caitlin Clark on the same team. But I’m so happy for her to be selected by Las Vegas Aces during early 2nd round. WNBA also agrees her prospect. Now I pray Las Vegas trade her to Indiana please 🙏🏻 ❤
Way to go Kate “The Glue”!! Will be so awesome watching you play!!
Kate and Nika underrated players. Deserved to get drafted sooner
Kate Martin!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
I love this girl. Her energy is contagious!
Congratulations Cap!!!! 💛
I’m so so happy Money Martin was chosen in the drafts! Highly underrated player.
She'll be a solid backup. One those players that'll hang around for awhile just based on her skill set, not overall impressive but yet not bad enough to not be able to
contribute key minutes
Right , She’ll develop well under the aces tho . She doesn’t seem to be looking to be a star , she just wants to play .
I'm so glad she's getting a chance at the next level... let's goooo
happy for her. but i wish she was going to indiana with caitlin
same 😢 but Im interested in seeing her flying solo as well ❤
This was my favorite part of this draft. Unexpected and yet so smart! Way to go Kate, you will be great at anything you do in life.
Unfortunately some of these ladies in the 2nd and 3rd round will get cut. It’s tough to make a roster in the WNBA with such limited spots.
this made my day
Vegas loves Kate Martin! ❤❤❤❤❤
She's a baller! 💰💰💰
Martin is a hooper great player
I'm so happy for Kate!
They really should have ran the presser on the WNBA channel a bit longer so Kate Martin could talk about going to Las Vegas.
I’ve been watching for years this is the most air time they’ve gotten to my knowledge, usually they cut it way earlier. Excited for this draft class and the W in general
Ikr I was seaching for her presser interview. Why didnt they wait till the end...tsk tsk
I Love this!! She totally deserves this. I was so disappointed when they were saying she was most likely going coach after her college career. I figured she had what it takes to move to the pros. Congrats Kate!!🎉
So happy for you, Kate!! I'll be following your professional career, as well. You're one FINE team leader and teammate, and an even more terrific player!
In that game vs UConn, she had a horrific first half. Never seen her play worse. But that girl absolutely balled 2nd half and was the driving force in that win. Got them to the championship game
Might have been the sneakiest pick of the draft
Way to go Kate..!!!
You have been so valuable..!!!
Kate Martin Las Vegas Aces vs Caitlin Clark Indiana Fever will be something to see
Great moment in this draft.
And to think, C.C. Had to talk her into coming back the extra year this past year and play one more season, if she hadn’t, there wouldn’t have been no Final four or national championship game for Iowa. Now Kate gets a shot at the WNBA, she deserves it as much as anybody out there.
Kate Martin is underrated. Congratulations to her she deserves it.
Entered the draft and said “hey I’m here to support, but just maybe I can get an opportunity.” And she did folks hair for you late perfect fit
She has been consistent the entire time in Iowa she can shoot, rebound, defend she was just overlooked because Catlin was her teammate
yes, this is why I have so much respect for her as Iowas team captain. she makes sure the teams cohesiveness and love for each other is always there despite everyone being overshadowed by Caitlin's stardom ❤ Imagine the whole Iowa roster always being labeled as "Caitlin Clark and the Hawkeyes" she was a great team captain
Awesome player and leader, congratulations.
Congratulations to Kate. Wish she was selected by the Indiana Fever.
Oh I so wanted that to happen
Kate Martin was up for player of the year award. So people shouldn't be surprised Kate martian is drafted.
I’m actually so hyped for Kate Martin she the 🐐
So Cool!
I knew she entered the draft. Glad to see but I was hoping she'd go to the Fever also.
All any of us ask for is an opportunity! Go for it Kate
Kate has a great midrange jumper and a solid 3 point range. she is tough in the paint. solid pick up
Undersized for a forward though..not a great rebounder so she has to play an off guard
So excited for her, i was hoping she would get drafted so i can watch her play more🙏 such a great basketball player and she doesn’t get enough credit
You go Kate!!!!😁 Congratulations!!!👏🏻 I am a huge fan!!!♥️
way to go Kate😍🥰
Earned your opportunity. Congrats Kate. A player who can go hard and do the yards is a valuable team member anywhere.
I love you so much Kate ❤
She a baller. So happy for Kate Martin
Kate Martin is so deserving such a great moment!
Way to go Kate. Good luck!
For those who DOUBTED Kate the great..REALLY?? Congratulations you will do fine girl/ woman you can ball with the best of them can't wait for your matchup against CC22🐐
Sooooooo happy for Kate Martin!! She has worked so hard and deserves this opportunity!! 🖤💛🖤
Soooo happy for her. She really loves the game.
Azzi Fudd back there looking mad is wild. How you going to be mad about seeing someone hopefully secure their future 🤣
Kate Martin was one of the best college players. There is no surprise that she got drafted by a top team.
Indiana will be making a call to the Aces for a trade for Kate Martin.

KATE MARTIN!!
