Seattle Storm rookie Nika Muhl has crushed the hearts of thousands, if not millions, of men after it was revealed that she is in a relationship.

The Croatian guard started going viral when she played for the University of Connecticut Huskies alongside Paige Bueckers.

Her good play got her selected in the second round of the 2024 WNBA Draft.

Many people have learned about Nika Muhl due to her outfits before games, but not many realize that while so many men would love to get with her, she is already spoken for.

Muhl’s boyfriend’s name is Nahiem Alleyne.

Alleyne was quite the star. He played five years of Division 1 college basketball, three of them at Virginia Tech, before transferring to UConn for his senior season, which is where he met Muhl.

However, after one year at UConn, he would transfer to St. John’s University for the 2023-24 NCAA season.

Before his college days, he was a two-year letter winner at Mountain View High School who averaged 17.2 points per game and made 63 three-pointers in the 2018-19 season, per hokiesports.

In his first season in college, he played 32 games and averaged 8.8 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 1.4 assists a game. His biggest year came in his sophomore season, when he played in 22 games and averaged 11.1 points and 2.6 rebounds a game.

With UConn and in a relationship with Nika Muhl, Alleyne played in 39 games, starting 8, while averaging 5.2 points a game.

His final year with St. Johns saw him playing in 32 games and averaging 6.4 points per game.

Nika Muhl Speaks On Not Playing Much During Rookie Season

In mere months, Seattle Storm rookie Nika Muhl went from being a top player in college, regularly playing all 40 minutes as a UConn senior, to not seeing about one minute a game in her rookie campaign.

The Storm selected Muhl with the 14th overall pick of the 2024 WNBA Draft, but she has yet to score a single point during her rookie year.

She addressed her lack of playing time in May:

“I don’t want to put it in a way where I was like, ‘Oh, I would come in the game right now and I would solve this for us’,” she said.

“Has there been instances where I felt like I wanted to go out there and help? Absolutely,” Muhl added. “But I’m still a rookie. And I’m still putting myself in a position of learning.”

“It was more of that eagerness of wanting to go out there and help my team in any way, shape, or form,” Muhl then said.
