Nika Mühl: UConn women's basketball pregame press conference (Villanova) - 2/27/24 

Thank you Nika, love your honesty and commitment to the UCONN nation program. You are amazing and so enjoyable to watch play the game of basketball.

Appears so cute and sweet, but is such a fierce competitor. She makes the most of her talents. And best of all, she has NEVER committed a single foul wearing a UConn jersey.

So well spoken. Amazing grasp of a second language. Better than most native English speakers. She’s my favorite player. Exactly who anyone would want as a teammate. I hope she comes back.

Nika always gives the best interviews. Always very honest, unrehearsed and not generic. And to think English wasn’t her first language

Very intelligent and well-mannered young lady.

I love watching Nika play. To me, she plays basketball the way Pete Rose played baseball. Go get ‘um Nika!!!

What a mature and fantastic kid, wonderful person, and fierce competitor - going to miss her if she moves on.

Going to harp on it every chance I get. Paige and Nika need to be handling the ball and KK needs to give them a breather. UConn is much better when Nika, Paige and KK are not on the floor for 30 MPG together.

Anyone know where I can watch the full uconn v Villanova game?? I’m from the uk and can’t find it anywhere 🙏🙏🙏

I hope UCONN gets in the NCAA Albany bracket which is 15 miles away for me.🏀😎🏀😎🏀😎🏀

Size is their obstacle. The other issue is their 3 point shooting. Paige and Ash are usually good at it. Nika and KK are inconsistent at the 3. Q is good at 3's sometimes.

She has grown up as hoped when she arrived. What happened to boo birds who wanted her benched? Wherever they are is fine by me.

If Nika and Aaliyah come back next year, we winning #12. No doubt in my mind. If everyone stays healthy and is fully recovered, with Nika and Aaliyah, along with that young lady named Paige, we winning title number #12. The depth of the team would be lethal! I hope Nika and Aaliyah come back but in the end, they have to do what is best for them and their situation.

Nika's Attitude has grown for the benefit team!!! Sorry to hear, the foreign Players can not have sponsorship (NIL) as pay is sick and wrong!!!! These Students are coming here and impacting the game more and more, starting as team mates; bring fans dollars in the USA and back home!!!! Dam why is the NCAA always behind the times... no weights for women and no equal recognition now students No NIL. What's next sleeping on the streets!!!!

Focus Focus 🏀🏀

HI NIKA!!!

Last year's team was probably better because Dorka was starting the year better than Ice and there were a couple of other small advantages. But, they ran into the OSU buzzsaw and that was that. This year's team is different, Paige is back at full strength, Aaliyah is too. We just have questions not answered so far as the team has geled and played better. Maybe there's no buzzsaw and we get through rounds where the good bet was against them.

I think Nike is top two in interviewing, only edged out by Diana.

She needs to work on handling the ball against quicker opponents and recognizing quicker players that want to attack her dribble. She needs to back down such players. She needs to study Luka Dontrick which would help her very much. When attacking the paint on a fast break for a player like her is to jump stop PUMP FAKE then go up with the shot. I’m just a culturally alert basketball fan wishing her success.
