"The journey is the dream 10🤍" Hailey captioned her post.

Angel Reese spent her final year at the LSU Tigers alongside Hailey Van Lith as the Sky star fell short of a second consecutive national championship after being eliminated in the Elite Eight. Following their run together, Van Lith transferred to TCU and is having one of the best seasons of her collegiate career.

After going their separate ways following their shared season, Reese and Van Lith seem to have their connection going strong off the court. Speaking on her podcast Unapologetically Angel previously, Reese reminisced meeting Van Lith, who had just transferred from Louisville.

"I think she was really distant from everybody else. So I kind of felt bad," Reese recalled. "Was probably one of the closer people with her on the team, so was like let me get close to her and like see who she is, because she was the only white girl."

Currently playing in the fifth season of her college career, Hailey Van Lith is averaging 17.9 points, 4.5 rebounds, 6.1 assists and 1.4 steals while shooting 46.4%, including 30.3% from deep.
