Hailey Van Lith winks, blushes as she hints at the 'best looking NBA player': "My man"
Hailey Van Lith is a big fan of the NBA. The former LSU star idolizes the late Kobe Bryant and even dedicated her 3x3 Olympic bronze medal in France to the LA Lakers legend. Van Lith admitted in past interviews she often watches the biggest and most popular league to learn more about the sport.
To improve her game, the 2023 FIBA World Cup gold medalist sometimes works out with different trainers. One of those she spent time with honing her game was Michael Wadsworth, who moonlights as an NBA barber.
Hailey Van Lith agreed to an interview with Wadsworth and had this to say when asked to name the best-looking NBA player:
“My man.”
The TCU Horned Frog would not elaborate but said when pressed to reveal the name:
“It’s on the DL.”
“DL” means down low or the information is available to a selected few only. Michael Wadsworth was curious so he engaged basketball fans by guessing who Van Lith referred to in her response.
Hailey Van Lith has been seen in the past with Jalen Suggs. The collegiate basketball star and the Orlando Magic guard, however, hardly have any photos together on their respective social media accounts.
There was a video of Van Lith and Suggs together, although they were not alone. One of those in the clip was Suggs’ sister Jennica. The two connived to pull a prank on Suggs who danced to music while his companions froze.
In 2021, Van Lith shared photos on Instagram that were appreciated by many, including Suggs. The Orlando Magic guard commented with a "Hey wife" to her collection of pictures, per the NY Post.
Hailey Van Lith graduated with a master's degree from LSU
Besides being an excellent basketball player, Hailey Van Lith is also an outstanding student. She walked away from Louisville with a degree in finance before completing her master's at LSU. Following her graduation from Louisiana, she posed for photos with her parents.
Van Lith’s graduation happened in mid-August, which was just perfect timing after her 3x3 Olympic stint. She went on Instagram to share a few photos about the event:
"I am blessed and the Lord is good."
Hailey Van Lith is enjoying a well-deserved vacation after a busy basketball season. The next time she suits up, she will no longer be with the LSU Tigers. Instead, she will try to lead the TCU Horned Frogs to the NCAA Tournament.
