The Mizzou women's basketball team has landed a commitment from Indiana freshman guard Nevaeh Caffey, a four-star prospect from St. Louis who started all 32 games for the Hoosiers last season.

Why it matters

Caffey's addition bolsters Mizzou's backcourt with a talented young guard who has already proven herself at the Division I level. As the Tigers look to build on a successful 2025-26 campaign, Caffey's experience and skill set could be a valuable asset.

The details

In her lone season at Indiana, the 5-foot-10 Caffey averaged 8.5 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game while shooting 42.1% from the field and 81.3% from the free-throw line. She was not a prolific 3-point shooter, attempting just 36 shots from deep, but she did connect on 41.7% of those attempts. Caffey's production improved as the year went on, as she scored 10 or more points in 8 of her final 9 games and dished out at least 3 assists in 4 of those contests.

  • Caffey was a four-star prospect in the Class of 2025.
  • She started all 32 games for Indiana as a freshman last season.
