Nika Mühl 2024 WNBA Draft Presser

[@fry5family]

I have never seen a better defender than Nika Muhl in this year's NCAAW finals. Especially her defense of Caitlin Clark. And she maintained her relentless elite level of defense for a very long time. I'm in awe of her shooting and her defense. I can't wait to see her on the court for Seattle. She is a fierce competitor.

[@MyHomeSchoolLife]

I love watching Nika Muhl! She is amazing! I can’t wait to see her start playing again!

[@bobbytaylor6946]

Then u didn't watch the finals and see what Raven Johnson did 2 Caitlin but that's ok I'm sure u can pull it up on KZbin #Shutherdown

[@skatedurr]

this the day I became a Seattle Storm fan!

[@MyHomeSchoolLife]

Same! 😂

[@michaelwilliams5234]

The Storm are going places! Excellent pick!

[@jpstewart4109]

She's so fire 🔥 😍 Big HUSKIES stand up!!

[@pinaypaparazzi6231]

As a long time fan of the Seattle Storm, welcome to the team! I can't wait to see you play with the veterans in the team, dropping dimes to Jewell, Skylar, Nneka, Ezi and even Jordan. Just be you. And yes, though I believe even Jordan Horston can guard Caitlin Clark, the team now has its defense secretary. Congratulations Nika.

[@anthonytaylor7928]

Stop she probably won't even make the roster

[@Thenajali]

Today I am a fan, imma get my jersey and go see NIKA MÜHL on home soil!!! Seattle you really got us a GREAT PLAYER

[@craigshores9880]

Nika was getting some not so nice comments early in the season by some supposed UCONN “fans” but those of us who knew at the time those comments were ridiculous are smiling even bigger now seeing her shine in the well deserved spotlight of success she has worked hard to achieve. She’s special and I am so happy for her- what she has done and will do. Go Nika!!!

[@markjackson6431]

shes the most slept on player in the draft. she can ball the fuck out and she’s gorgeous

[@Blacklist324]

How bout the D she played on Clark in the final four.

[@quannquann4578]

she’s the prettiest player in the league

[@Collegefootballproductions]

[@gualbertogarcia305]

Nika might now be One of the Prettiest WNBA Players.

[@leanwitrockwit2087]

for sure

[@MyHomeSchoolLife]

I agree! She’s beautiful!

[@robzilla60]

She is right up there. Absolutely gorgeous, well spoken, intelligent, and a Demon on the court. Greatest defense against CC in the semi.

[@RichieRichMo3]

Hell noooooo

[@deansvenvold1458]

Those alphabet WNBA players are going to be sniffing all over her

[@ali.cg11]

Storm fan since the beginning... thank you Storm, she's a baller. I'm so happy to see her playing in this team. Her joy is so contagious ❤

[@dwang79]

in five years we will be talking about all the teams that passed up Nika Muhl! She has a shooters touch, court vision, hand eye, fast twitch and great balance/agility. if youve played football, basketball or soccer, you know how hard it is to guard someone and stay in front them. she will be one of players from this class that will be in the HOF

[@anthonytaylor7928]

Are u that delirious? She would be lucky to make the roster

[@dwang79]

@@anthonytaylor7928 you are not athletic

[@davidhello4777]

Extremely durable player. Tough as nails. I've been a Uconn fan ever since Rebecca Lobo led the Huskies to their first national title. Wishing Nika all the best. She will do great at Seattle.

[@MissB-and-Winnie]

You can just tell she is such a genuine person and not to mention an incredible athlete. Excited to see her thrive in Seattle!

If there was ever a future player in any sport that said the right thing heading into a higher level of play, it would be Nika Mühl during this press conference. I'm certain that her impromptu answers to every question within this media space will grant her an unprecedented level of Rookie respect by the Storm's vets and coaches when walking into Seattle's practice facility for the first time.

[@leanwitrockwit2087]

Yup! these uconn players are so different from other players, you can tell they have media training but they don’t over do it and are still their true natural and authentic selves. it’s why they’re so loved!

[@thelightskinwonder]

It's crazy that the New York Liberty didn't select Nika. I'm in shambles but I'm hype for cuz I know she's gonna be great for Seattle.

[@leanwitrockwit2087]

facts. shes gonna give them hell every time now tho 😈

[@johnkim1043]

there is so much humility and graciousness in these new WNBA players.

[@itsgabengel]

on her seattle storm roster on the wnba website it says she from the US ...... might want to update that

[@meheulalei]

Absolutely Full Circle for Nika…She deserves all the accolades that will come her way. So very Proud of her….Fantastic interview/presser.

[@jasperjosh]

Storm is SO lucky to get her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@stanwebb3480]

The Best thing you have learn from Coach is to be your own coach to a point!! College Education teaches you to teach, so teach your self with the information you gather now, past and the future... Some Day you will be a Great Coach after your playing days!!! So happy for you!!!!!!!!WOOOOW!!!.... When you were freshman I viewed videos of you playing in Croatia, Wow you were a great fast break, Big D player and leader then....... Congrats!!!!!

[@SpectreRising005]

The Secretary of Defense has spoken. This will be a great system for her. Can't wait for this season!

[@Hey-wt6sz]

We love our croation baddie

[@Ginoulmer]

Nika is a sweetheart and a stunningly beautiful person. Oh and she is a great defender and teammate

[@danielclark5586]

I Love this woman. Kind, concientious, humble, hard working and talented. Great addition to the Storm.

Nika Muhl Youre a Class Act! I May be a Hawkeye, a Caitlin Clark & Fever Fan, But Im a Fan of Yours Now too! Nika You Deserved this so much, I honestly Feel they shouldve selected you in The First Round. When I heard you speak here, I Saw The Maturity, Greatfulness, Humbleness and Intellect you possess. And Your Abilities on The Court are Incredible! I went back and watched alot of your games I had never seen, and Im Just in Awe of Your Skills. Your Shooting Ability is Incredible, And your Passing ability as well, and during your college time , you often passed the ball many many times to teammates, even when you had opportunities for easy shots for yourself, and that is a Mark of All Star Quality. And to Top everything, Nika Your Defense Skills are Unmatched! Ive never quite seen such Intensive and Fierce Defense Skills Like Yours, You are in a Class Apart from anyone else in your Defense Abilities! Nika Im now a Fan of You and Im so Happy For You and your Family, and I Wish You All The Best for a Long Successful WNBA Career.

[@leanwitrockwit2087]

she’s gonna fit in so well with Nneka, Jewell, and Skylar!

[@fasted333]

NikaI am a professional athlete and I have been watching your games all season. You are a gem and the sum of efforts every game and you are a credit to your sport and your team . You are more than first class.

[@errjordyn]

@WNBA Why haven't you posted Alissa Pili's draft presser? She's the only first rounder who attended the draft who doesn't have a video up. Extremely gross of the league to use Alissa to push the "representation matters" narrative...and then not share/elevate what she had to say after getting picked by the Lynx. And while you're at it, post the pressers for Celeste Taylor, Charisma Osborne & Kate Martin since they were also in attendance!

[@timothywdillon121]

Secound that...Seattle storm fan... very best of luck.... Nika ... in you're Basketball 🏀 Career

[@rubberguard83]

Legendary status.

[@FOMC6780]

Nika, you are the best defender in UCONNWB history, and congratulations on moving to the WNBA in Seattle, it was a surprise to me because the rumor was that you were going back to Croatia?

[@robzilla60]

Nika, I hoped that you would get drafted and am so happy you made it to Seattle! I have a 4 year connection with that city from way in the past (79-82) with the US Navy. Love the city and all it's surrounding area. You are one of the most impressive players I have watched this season, and your outstanding play against Caitlin Clark in the semifinal game stood out for all to see. One bad foul call IMO cost Uconn that game. Keep up your drive and motivation on this next phase of your journey, it certainly serves you well!! Congratulations, you have made it to the next level!

[@meganharmon2923]

She is formidable on defense. Good choice for Seattle in their rebuild with the newly added veteran players.

[@rpmthankful123]

Great job Nika, amazing, pretty, gorgeous, congratulations!

[@videosixty1614]

Seems to be a genuine, delightful and humble gifted athlete. I really hope she gets the endorsement deals and fan appreciation she deserves. She really should of been chosen much earlier in the draft. If this is an example of the kind of athlete that the WNBA wants to present as its representative face, then the league will definitely grow in popularity. The fan base should however appreciate the sport for what it is and judge it on its own merit. Venus and especially Serena Williams are examples that show women athletes can be taken seriously and in many cases upstage their male counterparts. As an example, Floyd Mayweather isn’t even a heavyweight boxer but yet he is the richest and arguably the most successful boxer that has ever lived.

[@ogsan1296]

Nika is going to surprise many people. She will lock a few players down . Not sure if they know what she is about to bring. I am excited for her.

[@bobbymoss6160]

It's straight criminal how she dropped to the 2nd round. Nika's a 1st rounder!!

If the WNBA lowered the rim so the women could dunk, the league would be a lot more popular.

[@MissB-and-Winnie]

They already have players who can dunk on the current hoops! But they don’t need more dunking to make the game exciting since they just play good, fundamental basketball in the W. ☺️

[@catalina1968]

@user-hb6ot5vf1i Then women need to stop complaining that the players aren’t making enough money. The league can’t run independently because it still, after 25 years, can’t generate enough revenue.

[@catalina1968]
