In a display of camaraderie and support, former Iowa Hawkeye Gabbie Marshall praised Indiana Fever rookie Caitlin Clark following her remarkable debut at the WNBA All-Star Game. After Clark shared her All-Star experience on social media with the caption “First WNBA All-Star,” Marshall, her college teammate, responded with a simple yet impactful message: “You’re so awesome.”
Marshall’s comment garnered over 1,200 likes, highlighting the strong bond between the former teammates. Clark’s post also attracted attention from notable WNBA figures like Aliyah Boston, Jada Gyamfi, Sabrina Ionescu, Kate Martin, Lexie Hull, and Dearica Hamby, all of whom offered their congratulations.
Clark and Marshall, who played together at Iowa from 2020 to 2024, were key players in leading the Hawkeyes to back-to-back NCAA tournament runner-up finishes in their final two seasons. Their synergy on the court has clearly transitioned into mutual support off the court.
Caitlin Clark has been outstanding in her rookie season with the Indiana Fever, averaging 17.1 points and leading the league with 8.2 assists per game. Her versatility and playmaking skills have made her one of the WNBA’s most exciting new talents. Despite being known for her scoring prowess in college, Clark’s well-rounded game continues to impress at the professional level.
During her collegiate career, Clark averaged 28.4 points, 8.2 assists, and 7.1 rebounds per game, solidifying her reputation as one of the most prolific scorers in NCAA history. Her transition to the WNBA has not only boosted her team’s performance but also increased the league’s viewership and ticket sales.
Clark’s debut at the WNBA All-Star Game on July 20 in Phoenix showcased her talent on a grand stage, and it seems certain that this will be just the first of many All-Star appearances for the young star.
