"Time to make 2025 even better" - Caitlin Clark recaps 'fav moments' from 2024, featuring her key milestones

WNBA superstar Caitlin Clark recapped what has been a stellar year for her on and off the court with an Instagram post on Tuesday. The post contained 20 images of the Indiana Fever guard's best moments in what she called the "best" year.

Clark captioned the post: "My fav moments from the best year. Time to make 2025 even better🖤📓💫."

The first photo was a portrait of Clark with her WNBA Rookie of the Year trophy. The league announced on Oct. 4 that she had won the award, receiving 66 out of the 67 possible votes. She also posted a photo with teammate Aliyah Boston, who won the same award in 2023.

Another photo was of Clark attending the "A Year in TIME" annual event in New York City. In the portrait, Clark held a copy of Time magazine with her as the cover, being the 2024 Athlete of the Year. Clark also shared an image of her playing golf. A collage of some of her pregame outfits is also included.

Many of the photos were with her former Iowa Hawkeyes teammates. This included several moments off the court. One was during a Hawkeyes football game. Clark also did not forget her boyfriend, Butler Bulldogs assistant coach Connor McCaffery.

Several of Clark's photos were also in a Fever jersey, most notably, a picture with her best friend and former Las Vegas Aces guard Kate Martin. Clark and Martin were Iowa teammates.

There is a special bond between Caitlin Clark and Kate Martin dating to their days as Hawkeyes teammates. They helped Iowa reach NCAA championship games in back-to-back years (2023 and 2024).

Martin attended the WNBA draft night in 2024 to support Clark, and she went home as the 18th pick.

On X, the WNBA counted down the top viral social moments of 2024, and this moment was ranked No. 2.

"Kate Martin attended draft night to support her Iowa teammate Caitlin Clark. She walked away as the #18 overall pick to the Aces, made the final roster, and became a great success story in the '24 rookie class," the WNBA wrote.

Clark and Martin's friendship transcended on and off the court. Martin went on to play with the Aces for a season. She will play with the Golden State Valkyries in their inaugural season after the team selected her during the expansion draft.

As Clark broke NCAA and WNBA records and received multiple recognitions this year, fans will be eager to see what's in store for Clark in 2025. And to what heights she will bring women's basketball.
