My Take

Van Lith is a player whose ambition I genuinely admire. Coming out of small-town Wenatchee, she did not settle anywhere comfortable, moving through Louisville, LSU, and TCU before reaching the WNBA's Connecticut Sun. At a listed 170 cm she is not physically imposing for the game, yet she plays with a fearless, attacking edge that is a joy to watch. Born in 2001, she is still early in her arc and has already absorbed the pressure of repeated big stages. There is a compelling underdog narrative here, and I find myself rooting hard for where it goes next.

Overview
