Hailey Van Lith is preparing for her final year of college basketball, joining the TCU Horned Frogs after transferring from LSU. But before the season started, she decided to get some NBA action.

This week, HVL visited the American Airlines Center to watch the Dallas Mavericks’ season opener against Victor Wembanyama and the San Antonio Spurs.

HVL sat on the baseline and dressed in style with her brother Tanner.

Van Lith was miked by Bleacher Report and appeared on their “Courtside Cam.”

After a smooth throw from new Mavs star Klay Thompson, B/R shared a video of Van Lith breaking down the game with her brother.

Van Lith had an eventful summer.

The TCU guard was the only college player to represent Team USA on one of the four Olympic basketball teams at the 2024 Paris Games. The 22-year-old, who previously played at Louisville and LSU, has extensive 3×3 experience.

HVL won five gold medals representing the United States in international competitions, two of them in 3×3 basketball: at the 2023 FIBA ​​3×3 World Cup and the 2019 FIBA ​​3×3 Under-18 World Cup.

Team USA’s 3×3 team won bronze in Paris.

Van Lith had difficulty adjusting to a new position during her only season at LSU, so we hope the bronze medal and a fresh start at TCU will be her redemption.
