Hailey Van Lith had finished her 2023-24 season on a low note with LSU — she struggled mightily to defend Caitlin Clark and, at one point, just had to shrug at what she and everyone else was witnessing.
After that, it appears she’s not declaring for the WNBA Draft as her teammate Angel Reese did — the league release a list of those who declared for the 2024 edition and her name isn’t on there. Not only that, Van Lith has reportedly entered the transfer portal and will leave LSU.
So … what’s next for Van Lith? Only time will tell where the former LSU star will take her talents.
The WNBA released a list of players that have formally filed for inclusion in the 2024 WNBA Draft.
