UConn’s KK Arnold drops 2-word reaction in awe of ex-teammate Nika Muhl’s chic outfit

UConn Huskies guard KK Arnold showed love to her former teammate, who is now competing in the WNBA. On Tuesday, the Seattle Storm guard Nika Muhl shared snaps of her latest chic outfit on her Instagram account as she continues to put out her famous pre-game fits.

Muhl is currently in her second year in the WNBA after spending four seasons with coach Geno Auriemma's program. However, she is sidelined for the whole campaign with an ACL tear that she suffered in October of last year while playing for Beşiktaş JK in the Turkish Super League.

"Just here to support the home team with my knee twin. Who said we can’t switch (it up)," Muhl captioned.

Arnold then dropped a two-word reaction in support of Muhl.

"My lawdddddd," she wrote.
