Despite losing star [autotag]Angel Reese[/autotag] to the WNBA this offseason, the LSU women’s basketball team looks to be one of the nation’s best after retooling a roster that returned some major contributors with a loaded transfer portal class.
We’re now just over two weeks out from the Tigers’ first exhibition of the year and less than a month from the start of the regular season. LSU will take the podium at SEC media day on Oct. 16 in an early afternoon slot with portions being televised on the SEC Network.
The Tigers will be represented by their two biggest returning stars in [autotag]Flau’Jae Johnson[/autotag], who had a breakout sophomore season, and [autotag]Aneesah Morrow[/autotag], who impressed after transferring in from DePaul.

After winning the national title in 2023, LSU reached the Elite Eight last season before its season ended in a rematch against Iowa. Coach Kim Mulkey’s team is hoping for another deep run in 2024-25.
