On Monday, Martin posted photos of herself with the Aces on Instagram, captioning the post with, “I love my job.” The post quickly gained attention, particularly due to Clark’s heartfelt responses.

Clark, who is known for her dynamic play on the court, showed her softer side with an emotional reply: “love you.” This message resonated with fans, showcasing the deep bond between the two athletes. Clark didn’t stop there; she also commented on a mention of Martin’s mother, Jill, in one of the photos. “Just here for jilly bean,” she wrote, using a personal nickname for Martin’s mom, further highlighting the close-knit nature of their relationship.
