Hailey Van Lith's career continues to grow. After being selected 11th overall in the 2025 WNBA Draft by the Chicago Sky, the former TCU player has excited fans with her big decision.

Chicago starts a new WNBA season next May 17. They will have to visit Indiana Fever and the matchup promises to be a high-level showdown, as they will have to face the 2024 Rookie of the Year, Caitlin Clark.

This decision comes with a commitment to the team and sends a strong message of identity as a Sky.

Her incredible numbers

That her selection in the 2025 Draft has been a talking point is no coincidence. In 2024, Hailey averaged 17.9 points, 5.4 assists and 4.6 rebounds per game. This not only landed her on the Chicago Sky, but previously earned her Big 12 Player of the Year and AP Third Team All-American honors.

Now, reunited with her former LSU teammate Angel Reese, she fills fans of the team and the WNBA with anticipation.
