Before the new TCU Women’s Basketball guard joins the Horned Frogs for the 2024-25 season, she will make a change to her body.

Van Lith took to her Instagram story and revealed that she was getting a tattoo on her arm.

Back in April, Van Lith officially revealed her transfer portal destination to the TCU Horned Frogs after she spent one uneven season with the LSU Tigers.

Van Lith exercised her COVID year after already playing four seasons of college ball. She decided not to enter the WNBA Draft after a disappointing lone season in Baton Rouge. She averaged 14.5 points, four rebounds, and 2.8 assists per game over three seasons at Louisville and one season at LSU.

Van Lith will be playing for a more important team. This summer, she will be rocking red, white, and blue as a member of the 2024 USA Basketball 3×3 Women’s National Team at the Olympic Games in Paris.

Van Lith was the only active college player to be named to a USA Basketball team in men’s or women’s competition for 3×3 or 5-on-5.

“Getting to compete for my country in the Olympics and represent my family, my home, and TCU is a dream come true,” Van Lith said in a story released through gofrogs.com. “I am extremely humbled and grateful for this opportunity. I cannot wait to compete in Paris and be able to showcase my skills on the biggest global stage of them all. Go Horned Frogs!”

“I could not be more excited and happy for Hailey,” TCU head coach Mark Campbell said in the story on gofrogs.com. “She has worked her whole life for this opportunity. To be the only college basketball player selected to compete in the Olympics is an incredible honor, and an opportunity Hailey has earned. She has been training in Fort Worth and invested considerable hours with our staff to prepare for this moment. Hailey representing Team USA and TCU in Paris on a global stage, as she chases a gold medal will be an incredible experience to share with the Horned Frogs and Fort Worth communities. I cannot wait to head to Paris and cheer on Hailey as well as all our TCU Olympians.”

Van Lith will join LA Sparks forward Cameron Brink, Atlanta Dream guard Rhyne Howard, and former Tennessee Volunteers forward Cierra Burdick.

She is no stranger to this as she boasts extensive experience in both 5-on-5 and 3×3 with Team USA. The basketball star was a member of the 2023 USA 3×3 Women’s National Team and brought home a gold medal at the 2023 FIBA 3×3 World Cup.

Kelsey Plum and Darren Waller File for Divorce After 1 Year of Marriage

WNBA champion Kelsey Plum and NFL tight end Darren Waller filed for divorce after one year of marriage. In April, the WNBA star and New York Giants tight end filed a joint petition for divorce in Clark County, Nevada.

Just after the filing, Plum shared a heartbreaking message on social media. “I’m devastated. I walked through fire for that man, but now I see it’s time to go,” she wrote on Instagram Stories.

“God has given me an incredible life, and I’m truly so grateful for the profound love from my family and friends,” the Las Vegas Aces star continued.

“One day, I’ll share my story; today is not that day. Thank you for the grace to process my pain, to forgive and move forward. Today and everyday I will continue to choose joy. Much love, KP.”

Waller, a former player for the Las Vegas Raiders, and Plum, a two-time WNBA champion with the Aces, started dating. It is said that they dated for almost a year prior to getting married on March 4, 2023.

The Las Vegas Review-Journal claims that on January 22, 2023, Plum and Waller submitted an application for a marriage license.

Waller was traded to the New York Giants shortly after their marriage. Many believed former head coach Josh McDaniels did this on purpose since he wasn’t invited to the wedding.
