While most of the world’s attention is focused on Angel Reese and Caitlin Clark when it comes to rookies in the WNBA, Kate Martin and Nika Muhl have also created quite an impressive fanbase for themselves.

Martin is a former Iowa Hawkeye who now plays for the Las Vegas Aces while Muhl played for the UConn Huskies and now suits up for the Seattle Storm.

The Aces and Storm face off during a matinee WNBA game on Wednesday.

And prior to the game, a photo of Martin and Muhl sharing a wholesome moment surfaced on social media.

X user @soistaydown posted a photo of a briefly obscured interaction between the two rookies with the caption, “NIKA AND KATE TALKING”.

Muhl and Martin appear to be laughing over something.

And another X user posted a photo of Muhl and Martin sharing a hug moments afterwards.

While fans surely wish there were better photos of this heartwarming exchange, it’s great to see the two rookies sharing a wholesome moment before facing off as WNBA foes later today.
