Her game was on fire against Clark. Two memorable players.

[@5thgen916]

Best defensive performance against Clark to date.

[@howardosden3112]

My favorite Husky; it's amazing that she's a senior already. 😢 I hope she takes advantage of the extra year of eligibility! 😊

[@matsalvatore9074]

She played like a vicious pitbull. So tough. Relentless. Embodies uconn basketball. Old school tough grit n grind huskies

[@DefnotAnnaleigh]

Here after she got selected😝

[@arthur-ri4zo]

Nika has been a treasure and UCONN is lucky to have signed her. 🏀

[@m.o.5291]

You played like a warrior last night. That was amazing.

[@JohnWong-jr8qk]

Nika is an inspirational player! What an incredible performance as the point guard in the Final Four game, and the outstanding defense on the toughest assignment. I hope she will stay for the extra year and win it all next year!

[@user-us4dm6qp2i]

in 1974 I was best man at a 3day croatian wedding here in the states. the whole town was Croatian, and I learned just how down to earth and hard working and life loving the croatian people are. Beautiful folks. They know how to party and drink too.

[@SkunkNWindow]

she gained a fan last night. even more so now learning about her :)

[@badabing8152]

oh she's going to sleep tonight knowing this. Thanks for letting us know.

[@thomasvarella4756]

Every championship level team needs a player like Nika, willing to run thru a wall without hesitation! Continued Blessings and success

[@alyssalewho]

My favorite basketball player of all time ❤ what a defensive nightmare. You are the best ❤😊

[@samkochel6990]

I've been watching Nika her whole time and she's great! Love her: the attitude, the hustle, the spirit, the decency. She's awesome.

[@peacethroughstrength172]

Didn't know much of her until tonight, she is amazing and great! Nika worked her tail off in the F4 tonight.. Imagine if her parents would have let her stay there and not go lol, many do that but glad she took the step to come on over. Best wishes to her, what a nice and humble young lady. Stay true to yourself! And yes 4 years pass by in a blink, older we get it turns to decades passing in a blink as well haha. Semper.Fidelis

[@austinburwell5834]

Semper fi?? Devil Dog??

[@danwayment6842]

Wow. Four years already! 💙 Stay one more!❤

[@juan1946er1]

Nika is one seriously tough basketball player...she is also a super cute girl who is loved by UCONN fans along with her true family!

[@LetsGetitBoah]

She's so beautiful. Plus she put the work in on our lovely Caitlin Clark, mad props.

[@reginaldsimmons4600]

Love all of what you’ve done for women basketball at UCONN. We will miss you so much. God bless you and your family. Peace 🕊️

[@captain0310]

Nika, as a PG you did a tremendous job last year. This is your final year. Go all the way get the championship ring!

[@written12]

Nice video. Nika is a likeable and admirable young woman. The UConn girls are lucky to have her as a teammate and friend.

[@jerrygarcia4390]

This was an awesome interview ❤

[@ChasingMula]

I love her so happy she’s a husky 💙💪🏽

[@fasted333]

Mika you are gem and fabulous point guard. Your efforts on court are clearly visible. Go pro

[@manuelluna1500]

I became a fan after watching her guard Caitlin Clark, a very talented young lady.

[@josefpulistar5144]

Im a huge fan of CC 22 🐐 since i heard of a great player playing in Iowa. Much respect to Nika for playing that tenacious defense on CC the whole game. Good luck in the WNBA if a team decides to pick you and WHY NOT! your good enough to me. 0:00

[@robertsutphen2333]

I watched and rooted for Nika last night (final four game) with my new #10 tee-shirt on. ……and I’m wearing it all day today too…as a tribute to play and amazing attitude she possesses. I’m 73 yrs. old and Nika and her team have me watching basketball again ! I hope NIL regulations change for foreign students playing here. Terrible mistake!!!

[@Tito74]

She was awesome in the tourney.

[@johnkim1043]

One of my favorite collegiate players!

[@ChildOfThe1970s]

Nika is my favorite because I have Croatian ancestry on my mom's side of the family, who came to the USA in the late 1800s or early 1900s.

[@maryrippe4616]

Big fan after that semis performance!!!

[@mikailbumpus692]

Nika You are a Class Act and an Amazing Athlete! And I fully appreciate how important your family values are to you, and The people you included and mentioned, along the way that helped you to where you are today. That is really Awesome. Your Basketball skills, Passing, Shooting, Rebounding, and your Awareness around you is incredible. And your Defense skills are unmatched, I personally think you are the Best Defensive player that was in The entire College ranks. . Nika I wish you the absolute best in your new career in The WNBA!

[@stevehardwick7285]

You're a great player, keep it up!

[@user-wl9uz7ws5m]

Love her accent 😂❤

[@alicemerrill7541]

My idea of Hell would be to spend eternity being guarded by Nika Mühl. She is ferocious.

[@littletath]

the seattle storm gained one hell of a player. go nika!!

[@godsson5007]

Awesome video ❤

[@johndavis5512]

She's gorgeous! Wow. A warrior on the court also!

[@jolsn42]

What a wonderful young lady. Next to Paige, she is my favorite Husky player!

[@andrewmillman45]

One of my favorites all heart personality and effort.Team player thru and thru they don't make them like her anymore.Still miss Gabby Williams Katie Lou and Napheesa that was a fun team .Good luck to Nika she will not be forgotten even love her cat!!!!

[@markhathaway9456]

Excellent video. Very nice.

[@nasroyusuf6407]

It’s so impressive like how did she get the accent on point when she went to the usa at 18?

[@danielfarmer9533]

What a great person. Really impressive

[@VeraxMusic]

If NBA players played with her same passion and hustle, I'd watch again. College ball is better.

[@Blacklist324]

You did an Outstanding Job guarding Caitlin Clark in the Final Four. Pick her up full court, deny her the ball, if she catch it play her slightly on her left side instead of straight up was the way to play her.

[@robertmaguda3809]

Thank you for just being you!

[@PukaHeadMan]

Such a beautiful beautiful young lady! Aside from being one of the best college basketball players in the nation, how are you able to speak English so well!?

[@philmanmontero2472]

I like your overall game specially your tenacious defense & timely 3's!

[@lindaloftin6552]

May God watch over you as u open another chapter of your life stay blessed see you in the WNBA

[@heyarnoldfan12]

I follow a few athletes in tennis and volleyball who are Croatian and live in America, and they speak the absolute best English of any foreigners I’ve heard. What’s the secret? Lol

[@den20dgo]

English in elementary school, english in high school and english at home, watching movies and TV shows.

[@davidg6803]

Not just English too. I follow Croatian players in European football and most of them learn to speak fluently different languages. Ivan Rakitic, who played with Sevilla and Barca, he speaks Spanish like close to a native speaker.

[@craigshores9880]

Nika = fun to watch!

[@user-yn8ud5uf5d]

My favorite Husky ever!

[@34stzoo]

I love me some Nika!

“Nika 👑👑👑”

[@matsalvatore9074]

Nika forever gonna be one of my favorites. She plays so tough. She is a dog

[@michaelmallon8013]

Nika, please play basketball for as long as possible, then I think you would be an amazing coach! You are a case study on how to play defense and being a playmaker!

[@cass4114]

i like her stronger player .hope she comes back!

[@dennishall5017]

The best guard in America!

[@michaelalmasian4710]

Nika Mühl is who you want next to you in a foxhole when you’re surrounded by the enemy. Her competitiveness, poise, athleticism, and sportsmanship is why we love sports.

[@edwardfitzgerald3877]

Croatians and Romanians are very good at learning foreign languages. They pick up on the subtleties of new languages quickly.

[@ram11198]

Gonna miss her

I’m down bad 😍😍

[@gilaa4096]

0:42 She's badass, I'm in LOVE 😍

[@snakeperson2482]

She locked down Caitlin Clark for most of that game. She's the reason Clark had so many turnovers and barely hit any threes. Kudos!!

[@rockdamic]

She's one feisty defender

[@JesusG-uv4ee]

She fine

[@carolynbarr770]

Don't believe Nika is a senior already!! 😮

Late to the party. She is all that. I am pulling for her to be drafted to the Aces. If not, still will be rooting for her
