She’s had a string of really bad games from FG percentage to turnovers

Maybe her foot is a factor, idk but she hasn’t been good the last month

She hasn’t played in a couple weeks. We will be a much stronger team in the tourney.

I know she a freshman, but she looked scared and lost.

MW is a freshman that's adjusting to playing at this level, she'll be fine.

LSU needs to figure out how they want to play the screens on defense. They also need to stop sagging so deep in the paint that they can't recover when the ball is kicked outside.

Offensively, they need to play through Reese and Morrow and shoot the open shot when available. FJ can relieve some of the ball-handling pressure from HVL and Poa. LSU has so much talent but they don't play as a team in pressure games/moments.

HVL looks as if her foot is still an issue and she's always "laboring" around the court. I'm not so sure she still wants to play the PG position any longer, it appears to be more difficult than she expected. I guess her old coach was correct in his assessment and made the right decision to bring in a PG form the portal.

Williams is a great talent, but the stop and pop midrange game is probably the worst play style in basketball. It’s just an incredibly inefficient shot. When’s she’s looking for her shot, the team is in trouble.

You could go back to mid-season and she hasn't been great. She's looked worn down since late January to me.

She does look too thick for her position. I hope she gets some good condition training after this season. ADR has slimmed down over the season, and it is paying dividends.

Hoping her legs aren’t dead from the long grind of the season and playing so many minutes. Really need her to come on strong to give us another consistent scorer during tourney run

It's been a loooong season for our FR. The culmination of more physical games than she has ever played before and the PF which can be very painful. I hope she is using the incline stretching board every chance she can get. We need her ability to knock down shots to open up the inside and spacing for other scorers, inside & outside. This team can do this.

Try being in a walking boot and being told to just rest it to be ready for the big tournament. Vegas is laying good odds that you’d play like dogshit under the same conditions. She only played today because there just wasn’t enough healthy bodies. Kim has been saying she didn’t want her aggravating it again before March Madness.
