Nika Muhl, WNBA All-Star Teammates' Spirited Pregame Interaction Goes Viral

Seattle Storm rookie Nika Muhl still hasn't scored a WNBA point heading into this year's 2024 WNBA All-Star Weekend.

Yet, her team has amassed an impressive 17-8 record thus far in the season, and is riding a three-game winning streak headed into the All-Star break.

The last game that the Storm played before the All-Star and Olympics break was on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Sparks.

While Muhl didn't receive any minutes during the game, she did drain a half-court shot during Seattle's pregame shootaround.

And her celebration with Storm teammate and Team USA player Jewell Loyd afterwards caught a lot of attention on social media.

An X user posted footage of Muhl draining the half-court basket, jumping on Loyd in celebration, then running back into the locker room with a smile before Tuesday's game with the caption, "my baby love to see her happy & smiling".

The post was made almost exactly 24 hours ago and has amassed nearly 75,000 views.

Despite Muhl not getting the minutes on Seattle fans want for her, she still seems to be enjoying her rookie season surrounded by some of the league's best players.
