Just hours before the start of the 2025 WNBA Draft, Hailey Van Lith receives a touching message to help calm her nerves.
The 23-year-old has excelled in her college career and her numbers speak for themselves.

Nerves take center stage in the hours leading up to the Draft and someone who loves her very much has supported her with a warm message, her dad:
