Hailey Van Lith appears not to declare for the WNBA Draft, so will she stay at LSU next year?
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.
So … what’s next? Is it staying for another year with Kim Mulkey at LSU, where she transferred after three years at Louisville? Or will she transfer again? There’s some speculation as we wait:
The WNBA released the full list of players who renounced their COVID year and declared for the draft. Hailey Van Lith is not on it. #LSU https://t.co/MSYFnrnTc3
