Nika Muhl Visits Fans After Winning First WNBA Game | Seattle Storm.
Watch the video here:
Former UConn women’s basketball star Diana Taurasi had high praise for Nika Mühl, the latest Husky to join the ranks of the WNBA
Mühl’s first WNBA preseason appearance came against Taurasi as the Seattle Storm faced the Phoenix this week.
Following the game, there was a postgame video of Mühl talking to Christyn Williams and Taurasi. Mühl was knocked over by Taurasi under the basket during the game.
“You were pushing me all over the court!” Mühl said to Taurasi.
“I was waiting for you,” Taurasi replied.
On a WNBA media Zoom call Thursday, Taurasi was asked about welcoming new UConn alumni into the league.
“Yeah, I’ve been a fan of Nika since she got the school,” Taurasi said. “I mean, she plays with that, that grit. She has that Eastern Bloc mindset, which nothing is given to them and I just love the way she works and she’s gonna have a hell of a career, because she loves the game, because she’s selfless. She plays for the team. It’s always nice to have a fellow Husky around. We’ve gone through the same experiences with Coach (Geno Auriemma), so I’m just happy for her.”
The Zagreb, Croatia native missed the Storm’s exhibition opener against the Los Angeles Sparks in Edmonton due to issues with her student visa.
Mühl is the backup point guard to starter Skylar Diggins-Smith and subbed in for Diggins-Smith twice in the preseason game against Phoenix. She finished the game with six points, three defensive rebounds and two assists in the Storm’s 85-59 win over the Mercury at Seattle’s Climate Pledge Arena.
