Irate Hawk 250 cant shift and clutch cable question

So I have a 2021 Hawk 250 and haven’t really had any issues, but about 3 weeks ago I was out riding and my clutch cable snapped I’ve since ordered 2 and neither fit one was a 46” the other a 48”. As you probably know neither worked and I cannot find the true size anywhere online so if anyone knows or can link one that’d be great.. Anyways the main issue I’m having I just found today I tried just moving the clutch lever on top of the assembly to shift the bike a few times because I’ve been out of town since the cable snapped and it hasn’t been started or ridden. I found that I cannot push the bike at all with it in 1st and the clutch pulled in as well as if the clutch is pulled in and the bike is on it launches forward and stalls when I shift to 1st so the clutch is binding obviously but my question is do y’all think 3 weeks is really enough time to seize an almost new clutch? Or do you think the clutch is just toast because prior to the cable snapping when I would ride the bike more than 15 miles or so and it would get really hot I’d have a really hard time shifting sometimes. I also wanna add that the cable snapped before I started the bike so it didn’t snap and let the clutch slam forward or anything. So I need to know the true clutch cable size and what y’all think about if it’s seized or just bad. Thank you. 2021 Hawk 250 mod list: NIBBI PE28 carb, NIBBI high sensitivity throttle, ngk spark plug, loud pipes, cat delete, lowered 3 inches, Alpena headlight and fog light, NIBBI 48mm long intake tube, NIBBI 48 mm intake, bored out exhaust manifold, JT 45t rear sprocket, JT 17t front sprocket, NICHE Oring chain.
