Flau'jae Johnson makes massive impact in LSU women's basketball victory

[RandySF]

LSU women's basketball defeated Northwestern State on Friday night. The Tigers are now 2-0 on the season, as Flau'Jae Johnson led the way in the victory. Johnson finished the game with 24 points on 10-16 shooting from the field and 2-3 shooting from beyond the arc. She added seven rebounds, two assists and two steals.

Paige Bueckers and JuJu Watkins are probably the two most popular players in women's college basketball at the moment. Bueckers, who plays for UConn, is expected to be selected first overall in the 2024 WNBA Draft. Watkins is becoming one of the best players in the game at USC. However, Johnson's contributions should not be overlooked.

When it comes to popularity, Johnson has unquestionably become one of the most well-known college basketball stars. Not only is she a terrific player, but she is also a rapper. Her career as a musical artist has no shortage of potential, but the same can be said for her basketball career.

Johnson averaged 14.9 points per game on 50.4 percent field goal and 38 percent three-point shooting during the 2023-24 season. She added 5.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 2.1 steals and 1.0 blocks per outing. She was often overshadowed by Angel Reese, though.

1. She'll Be Big Heat By Tournament Time

She reportedly plays bigger than her actual size. She's only 5'10" but defends taller players well and can post up against bigger women.
I'd guess her numbers will make her very well-known by March.
