"The Connecticut Sun waived Van Lith after just nine games with the team, including three starts.
Van Lith was once one of college basketball’s brightest stars at Louisville, but her path has become increasingly turbulent in recent years. After a disappointing stint at LSU stalled her momentum, Van Lith revived her draft stock with a standout final season at TCU..."

She's a little undersized for her skill set, and not quick enough to create her own shot. She seems like a good kid and was a good teammate (She was first off the bench when Flaujae got assaulted by that SC goon). I hope she lands on her feet and has success in whatever she does next.

But she's the right size for her other skillset - "cute".

I'm sure she'll still land on her feet. Athletes tend to have good connections.

Maybe her time in the W has run its course. She's still good enough to have a great Euro career, if basketball is her choice. If not, I'm sure she can get paid with modeling or advertisements.

I'm thinking with here success at TCU , Bella Hines migiht be an All American in the Big 12. There are similarities in their games and attitudes, but she is taller and quicker.

HVL has value, but I doubt she will ever be anyones go to scorer, not quick enough to create her shot against a quality defender..She would thrive as a zone buster on a team with good bigs. Kind of like the career JJ Redick had in the NBA

HVL is a high volume shooter who is not quite good enough with her field goal % to get the volume of shots she needs on a team with better players. It would've been interesting to see what she could've done as the first option at LSU being allowed to put up a ton of shots. But, Kim knows more than me and probably knew that wouldn't work out well.

I’ve heard rumors that some people are making very very good money on a platform called….I can’t remember. I think it’s called only…onlyfans or something? Dunno. Just trying to help.

She’ll be alright. She could become a multi-millionaire as a model or creating adult content.

Yes. I’m saying she has money troubles. I’m not at all making a small joke and an obvious revelation that I’d like to see her do only fans for obvious reasons.

She's got 1 million + followers on Instagram, she's probably making as much money as an 'influencer' as she was from basketball. I think she's going to be ok.

I was just relating your comment to a recent Apple TV show.

She must eat like a horse if she’s gaining weight while playing professional basketball on a daily basis.

That makes me suspect that she’ll blow up like a balloon once her playing days are over. Maybe she’ll need Ozempic. She can make some money by doing Ozempic commercials

Too bad she didn't get knocked up by the NBA player. Seems like they broke up now.

She should’ve gone the Livvy Dunne route.

Far more talent and much more arse.

I guess she didn’t sign up for Livvy’s NILSU program.
