The outing, despite ending in a loss, had everyone talking about the feisty Croatian who locked Clark down.<\/p>\n<p>Muhl went on to become the No. 14 overall pick by the Storm earlier this year, though the team didn\u2019t give her significant minutes. She opted to play for Turkish side Besiktas during the offseason in a bid to prepare herself for her second term in the pros.<\/p>\n<p>Things went awry this Thursday as the guard went down with a gruesome knee injury while playing against former Storm teammate Gabby Williams and Fenerbahce S.K. She appeared to twist her knee on an awkward landing after snatching a rebound. Muhl went down immediately and was heard screaming in pain.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"tr\">\ud83e\udd85Nika M\u00fchl, bu pozisyonda sakatland\u0131 ve ma\u00e7a devam edemedi.<\/p>\n<p>Ge\u00e7mi\u015f olsun Nika \ud83d\ude4f <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/rMzVvV2TM3\">pic.twitter.com\/rMzVvV2TM3<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Be\u015fikta\u015f Haber (@BesiktasHaber) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BesiktasHaber\/status\/1841845483259490544?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">October 3, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">nika m\u00fchl injury. medical staff had to pick her up via stretcher. gabby williams stayed by her side. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/Q5ScW0EWFB\">https:\/\/t.co\/Q5ScW0EWFB<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/75ob66Q69d\">pic.twitter.com\/75ob66Q69d<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 .
