LSU’s women’s basketball team enters the 2023-24 season ranked No. 1 in both polls as it aims to defend its first national title, and [autotag]Angel Reese[/autotag] is a major reason.
One of the most dominant players in the entire country last season, Reese is back looking for a repeat, and she was one of 20 players named to the preseason watch list for the Katrina McClain Award, which is given to the top power forward in the nation.
Reese was a unanimous First Team All-American last season while setting an NCAA record with 34 double-doubles including 23 in a row to start the season. She also led the SEC in scoring and rebounding, becoming just the fourth player to do so.
