LSU sealed its statement victory for the fifteenth consecutive time. Angel Reese led the charge for the Lady Tigers with her dominant presence in the paint. This victory marked LSU’s second SEC win of the season, solidifying their position as a formidable force in the conference. Kim Mulkey’s starting five delivered a strong and dominant performance, ultimately securing a challenging 84-73 victory.
The collective efforts of Reese and a rookie powered the Tigers to a commanding second-half performance, where they outscored the reigning national champions by a considerable margin. But Angel Reese was highly astonished by her teammate’s reaction at one crucial moment as she took it to social media
Angel Reese startled by teammate’s action
Angel Reeses showcased her versatility by scoring both inside and outside, finishing with an impressive double-double of 21 points and 10 rebounds. Mikayla Williams, a freshman, provided a spark off the bench with her sharp shooting and relentless defense. She contributed 20 points and made several crucial steals that led to fast-break opportunities for LSU.
Reese finished with four assists and ten rebounds. LSU’s winning run reached 15 games as rookie Williams made 4 of 5 three-pointers in her first SEC away game. With a strong second quarter and efficient 3-point shooting, the Tigers led by 50 points at the half.

The actions of Mikayala resulted in the defender of Ole falling forcefully to the ground, albeit unintentionally. Despite falling, she wasted no time in shooting the ball, which garnered mixed reactions, including a comment from Angel Reese who exclaimed, “O’Lord.”
The freshman who turns head
Williams hit all three of her three-point tries, and the club finished seven of eight. The first half saw the Rebels go on a huge run, scoring the first seven points and building a 16-2 lead. Reese and Williams both made two free throws and Williams stole the ball and made a fast 3-pointer as LSU responded with a 9-0 run. The rookie does not appear to be a true freshman.
She appears to have attended LSU for a long time since she is as composed as ever. Williams has averaged 22 points per game in her first four collegiate games, including a 42-point showing against Kent State. She has made 10 of her 14 3-point tries in her past two games. The rookie guard from Bossier City, Louisiana’s Parkway High School has put in a lot of work.
