LSU women’s basketball the favorite to land 2025’s top overall recruit

LSU is the favorite to land the top recruit in the 2025 class.

[autotag]Kim Mulkey[/autotag] is an elite recruiter. She’s won several national championships by assembling teams of future WNBA stars. At LSU, it’s been more of the same, with Mulkey building one of the best recruiting staffs in the country.

Mulkey and Co. are working on landing one of their biggest pieces yet in 2025 five-star [autotag]Aaliyah Chavez[/autotag]. According to On3, Chavez is the top recruit in the class and per its Prediction Machine, LSU is the favorite to land Chavez at 62%.

The next closest school is Texas Tech, all the way down at 5%. Chavez broke down her top schools for On3 earlier this month.

“They’ve recruited me very well,” She said of LSU, “I think I talk to at least an assistant coach every day.”

Chavez said LSU is a winning program, something that’s important to her and cited the high energy she witnessed on her visit to Baton Rouge.

LSU already has an elite guard on board this cycle with Bella Hines, but Chavez would propel LSU’s class to another level. The Tigers remain involved with [autotag]ZaKiyah Johnson[/autotag] too, but LSU will have to battle Kentucky on that front.

[autotag]Kim Mulkey[/autotag] is preparing to enter her fourth year at LSU. Her program is firmly established as one that recruits can come to reach the next level. The success [autotag]Angel Reese[/autotag] is having as a rookie in the WNBA can’t hurt either.
