🚨Kate Martin Signs HUGE Deal Ahead of WNBA Season

Kate Martin Signs HUGE Deal Ahead of WNBA Season with aces after playing at iowa with caitlin clark

[@jadeshand2990]

I think the Aces would be insane to cut her. She’s a very marketable player

[@elmoblatch9787]

I think they will likely cut her.

[@AmoneyC]

@@elmoblatch9787 you dont draft 18th then cut like that. they have 2 other draft picks lower than her. candace parker just retired. we shall see

[@habib8961]

​@@AmoneyCI will be to busy watching Godzilla movies instead of watching basketball. Did you ever watch Godzilla vs. The smog monster? The smog monster is a very very dirty monster that is made out of garbage and pollution. It's even bigger than Godzilla in size. It likes to eat garbage and breath smoke from chimneys.

[@oz1141]

​@@habib8961 I haven't seen that movie in years

[@jimmybutler3694]

They got Aja 🤷🏿‍♂️

[@user-fz6ki3sx5d]

Congrats to Kate, I can’t wait to see her in the pros. She is a class act

[@paolobianconi495]

I will follow Aces only if they don't cut Kate who is a great player and a lovely girl.

[@MsRotorwings]

It says a lot that Martin was captain for 3 years at Iowa. Leadership is important on a team.

[@topsailpirate7972]

So proud of you Kate and Caitlin !

[@VictorRodriguez-ug7lm]

Definitely she has worked for it. On a separate note. She’s definitely marketable. Imagine seeing a game Aces vs Fever. Former teammates now “rivals”. People will love to see that.

[@gregthomas2448]

I would watch 👍💰🏆❤️💯

[@group447]

I watch women's basketball because of Kate Martin! You should too!

[@latoursharenetteezell2020]

👏 Yes! Congratulations Kate. You got your opportunity and you will be phenomenal. Let's go Aces🏀🔥

[@honeykin7890]

We love Kate and having withdrawal symptoms when you moved on! Best Wishes and Good Luck, praying for you!

[@johnnyjams2018-cm6mf]

Martin has real star power, otherwise she wouldn’t have signed with such a prestigious agency

[@blktrd0837]

i wanna see Kate guard Caitlyn

[@Remember.The.Creek24]

Definitely wanna see that.

[@Lydia-sx5ks]

Same!!

[@scottwynia6494]

Gabbie Marshall could ! Best defender in the big ten she got after the opposing team best guard every game and hit 38 percent from 3 also

[@remproperties3560]

She has always been super underrated. She has a great build, super talented, clutch, does the dirty work and well respected in the locker room. So glad the Aces saw something in her. Girl has 225k fans on IG! The privilege of being besties with Caitlin Clark. She will have a very promising career no matter what happens with the Aces!

[@ChrisDavis-dt6xx]

Kate and Caitlin are my favorites

[@ivickiereese4133]

And Gabby, love them all

[@richardb1791]

She has such a natural, all American, wholesome aura about her. That league can use what she has big time. And, she can play!

[@repost9581]

Congrats Kate. Good job at Iowa. I enjoyed the tourney.

[@LeroyLogsdon-if1cg]

Kate Martin is fantastic I'm so glad she got picked up I'm a big fan of hers and she's a winner and she ain't no quitter she's totally awesome🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤

[@ddleee]

I can see Kate and Kaitlyn bumping on the court at the beginning of the game and then going hard each other all game long and then hugging at the end

[@killzzzz_]

Caitlin* damn yall need to learn how to spell her name correctly

[@BenjWarrant]

I hope she goes on to have a rewarding career in the WNBA. Being drafted 18th overall is pretty impressive. You would think that the agency would have asked the Aces whether they were likely to waive Kate before signing the deal. Otherwise, it would be a complete waste of time.

[@killzzzz_]

It isn’t a waste of time at all. Even if she doesn’t make it, the agency is there for her future with other W teams, overseas possibilities and sponsorships

[@BenjWarrant]

@@killzzzz_ Shh. Don't spoil it.

[@legslark]

Kate was always the Iowa BB player I rooted for the most. She was their most stabilizing force and their glue. She will never be the star that Caitlin is, but I will be following her career just as closely!!😊

[@ricardoa.aggabao8413]

yes … Kate Martin is marketable …

[@kathystone6553]

with that resume of skill sets, Kate is a long term investment.

[@Smackwater587]

She is awesome!!!! ❤ Aces fans, players, coaches, Vegas LOVE KATE MONEY MARTIN!!!! 💰 ❤

[@RonConrad-pl6hc]

Way to go Kate , keep it up and you’ll help motivate young girls to join in sports !

[@thumai7621]

Yes, consumers like humble people.

[@gregthomas2448]

Many many wealthy middle age white men like CC and Kate, trust me on that 🏆👍💎💰❤️💯✅

[@larryworden1288]

I like everything she does on the court ! I pray she makes the cut !

[@slhobbers]

I’ll only tune in to an Ace game if Martin is playing. She’s incredible #MONEY

[@janetlilley4202]

I loved watching her play. Gets the job done, no fuss. I'll watch the Aces now she's there. 😊

[@mcaste8495]

If the United States wants people to watch the Paris Olympics. Kate Martin, Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark should be on the United States Olympic basketball team.

[@lesliechow6866]

kate martin has no business being anywhere near the olympic team

[@terrylink7207]

Angel had 2 baskets and shot 28% from under the bucket her first game.

[@charliefortin555]

Good for you Kate!

[@gregoryklein1723]

I will watch that team if she makes it. PERIOD

[@user-je7uj4sw3g]

Great.Class act.

[@Steve-cj9hd]

Kate Martin is a great player.she is extremely marketable

[@elizerlaguna3713]

Given the chance to have longer playing time, Kate can produce points for Las Vegas Aces. Also her hustle and defensive qualities will help the team win games👍

[@varj7]

We’ll know by Tuesday if Kate makes the team. My feeling is yes, BUT if she doesn’t, I wouldn’t be surprised if another team signs her. Go Kate!

[@kevinerose]

Great for her. Yeah she has showed herself to be comfortable in front of the camera and speaks well so it is no surprise that companies will be interested in her even if she is not a to draft pick or top player in WNBA. No doubt that Kaitlyn helped her get a higher draft pick but she has taken the spotlight and has proven herself and her character with her actions and demeanor both on the court and in front of the camera.

[@cliffordhill2365]

Kate Martin will make the Aces (and deservedly so), but just know that Caitlin Clark had a hand in that as well

[@chi4life61]

It would’ve been nice if they told us what the contract was🤔

[@Willco5114]

Just great news. We get to see more of Kate.

[@NC-bw4zl]

Kate is all about team!😊

[@LidiaMartinez-hi8gz]

Congratulations Kate

[@billfinn9536]

High character player, as you can tell ftom watching the draft and all the Iowas players hugging her. Her career is just getting started! Basketball 🏀

[@alanweinman1081]

I don’t think they will cut her, but if they do someone else will pick her up. Maybe Indiana and she could play with Caitlin again.

[@paulmcvety3691]

Yes, she has the talent to be a star!

[@ddleee]

she got to step her game up110%

[@user-xl2gg6tf6c]

She's a Baller, Like her game..❤

[@Michael-of6zf]

Kate quit basketball last year, CLARK begged her to come back for one more season.

[@CoachBoring]

All I know is I loved watching her compete. She is what I call a silent assassin

[@truthseeker_1776]

fundamentals and personality. 😀

[@user-hn4ix8ho8c]

Aces and Fever in the play offs??!????

[@albertbowen6197]

It's possible that Kate just may go on to have a better WNBA career than Clark.....her leadership skills set her above Clark, and she is mentally tougher....she possess good skills both sides of the ball.....there is a good chance she could get her first championship ring as a rookie....

[@staceymenheart8353]

Maybe they know something none of us do? I might’ve missed it, but do we know what type of deal they signed her to perhaps it has something to do with her local star appeal 🤔

[@modestmealsandmore]

Being signed to an agency doesn’t mean they are paying her. They aren’t, if anything she is paying them

[@eugenecorbin8176]

yes

[@arkansasgreg9976]

Let the Aces cut Kate. Maybe Indiana can pick her up and create a bigger brand if that is humanly possible.

[@Donald-my3oo]

Let her walk.....All the way to Indiana

[@roberthoneywell]

Well, I dunno if Kate is the greatest basketball talent, but she is OK. I think what she sells is good character, work ethic, comradery, and leadership, as well as the idea that she is becoming a pretty popular icon for the W. Let's face it, the W has an identity problem and people will tune in to watch women like Kate, the quintessential "girl next door" (much like CC) play their hearts out. Viewership and attendance at games is what sells the W, so, while she may not be that great of a talent, she will fill seats and help to expand the league. It's good business.

[@adelynmoncada3406]

Love Kate martin

[@user-ob2tr1jc1i]

WATCHING IOWA WOMEN WAS SUCH A BLAST!!! IT WAS LIKE THE LITTLE ENGINE THAT COULD! AFTER CAITLIN CLARK MY NUMBER 2 PICK WOULD HAVE BEEN KATE MARTIN, WHAT A COMPLETE PLAYER!!! WHEN YOU SEE A PLAYER PLAY ALL FACETS OF THE GAME AT THE HIGHEST LEVEL AND KATE SHOWS YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE THE TALLEST, STRONGEST, FASTEST, BUT HARD WORK, RESPECT & PASSION FOR THE GAME WILL BE SEEN AND RECOGNIZED, AND I THOUGHT THE LAS VEGAS ACES COULDN'T GET ANY BETTER AND THEY JUST DID WITH KATE MARTIN, CONFIDENT BUT NOT COCKY, AND HUMBLE AND APPRECIATIVE!!! A GREAT EXAMPLE OF WHAT A TEAM MATE SHOULD BE!!! WELL DESERVED KATE MARTIN!!! MY NICKNAME FOR YOU IS "ADDITION" BECAUSE YOU WILL ONLY ADD TO THIS TEAM!!!

[@royemoore]

She is a baller.

[@lazarosC]

no. Of course not. Caitlin Clark is not a simple player who changed women's basketball.

[@ronscorner4819]

What is the name of the company? Can give the company's name? You just said she signed but what was that? I think this not legit info.

[@thomaswakefield6889]

Why don't you use Google and look it up yourself, or are you just that lazy

[@TaiyouArt]

[@marcdaddy33]

Excel agency, I believe

[@patricklannon7011]

I thought she was an excellent player. I hope she has a long career! Good looking, too! Woops!

[@TubenIt83]

So what is the HUGE deal? Getting an agent?

[@natureredux1957]

So amazing how folks know the Character of folks that they have never met. Also funny how those same folks called Iowa a 1 Woman Band. Now those same folks want to Market another player from Iowa while still tearing down everyone else. These are the type of Fair Weather Fans the WNBA doesn't need.

[@marcdaddy33]

If it wants yo be profitable it does need those fans. You can't complain about women's pay in the W and then try to dictate who is permitted to support the league. 20 million true fans watch the NFL during the season but the superb owl gets 100 million fans. That's 80 million worth of fair weather fans - and the NFL is highly prifitable.
