Kate Martin, the former college teammate of Caitlin Clark turned WNBA guard, is having a solid 2025 season.

The 6-foot, 172-pound guard played her first WNBA season with the Las Vegas Aces. Martin, a sharpshooting guard out of Iowa, averaged 2.6 points, 1.6 rebounds and 0.9 assists per game for the Aces. She was then selected by the Golden State Valkyrie in the WNBA Expansion Draft.

Martin, a second round pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft, has become a key player for the league’s new franchise. She’s averaging 7.0 points and 2.8 rebounds per game while shooting 33.3 percent from the 3-point line.

The veteran WNBA guard is winning off of the court, too. Her stunning girlfriend, Claire Gransee, recently turned heads with a new photo.

LSU Tigers star Angel Resse has been making a lot of headlines after her match against the Iowa Hawkeyes. Reese has a unique fashion for her matches, she wears leggings on only one of her legs and she recently revealed the secret of doing so.

Reese lost her recent game against the Iowa Hawkeyes which left the fans wondering if she would continue with LSU or declare for the WNBA draft. Those questions have also been answered by Reese in her recent collaboration with Vogue.

Why does Angel Reese wear one legging attire?

Angel Reese wears only one legging as a part of her one-court attire and the fans have grown curious about it. Many people speculated that it was part of a superstition that Reese followed, however, that is not the case. The LSU star has herself revealed the reason for the unique dressing choice and it may surprise a lot of people.

I had surgery two years back on my shin. I have a rod in my leg… I cover the scar on one, and then the two players that I admire, Te’a Cooper and A’ja Wilson, also wear it, too. So it is swag. But I have used it to cover my scar,” said Angel Reese. She revealed that she had surgery on her leg and had a scar on it. She wears the leggings to hide that scar and at the same time as a swag fashion accessory.

In the new world that I am stepping into, just believe in me, trust in me, and give me time to learn and grow!” said Reese in the post.
