Her game is not good right now, just the wroong time to be in a slump.

I feel like she just doesn’t shoot enough to get in a rhythm. So many times when I watch this team, I feel like they just don’t shoot enough. I admire them not being selfish, but sometimes I wish I would just shoot the ball quicker.

Honestly she wasn't that bad yesterday, granted the turnovers were dumb but 5-10 shooting for 14 points is fine, especially for the first ncaat game. Hopefully she settles down and limits the turnovers moving forward
There were worse performances out there yesterday
Reese going 1-7 with 6 turnovers 0 assists, HVL going 2-7 with 5 turnovers was honestly the biggest issue yesterday. We need our seniors to be better

Too much focus on feeding Angel. NONE of them can get in a rhythm.

yeah, their outside shooting leaves a lot to be desired with only Flaujae hitting consistently from the outside, and she wasn't always shooting like that. I thought Van Lith would be much better shooting wise, but she's been really inconsistent. But Williams who was playing much better during the season has just looked bad, it's like her confidence left her. Smh

I just noticed that she's not playin with the same confidence as before, shooting air balls and all. She wasn't playing like that before, I don't know, I hope she gets that confidence back in her game and gets going, the tigers need her.

well, they or Kim needs to figure it out and get them going before they have an early round exit. I don't wanna see that happen, but that was ugly against Rice yesterday.

This is personally my take.... Williams isn't touching the ball nearly as much as she did most of the year this past month so she has struggled to find her rhythm. I'd say its due to shot selection at times, she is now forcing some shots to get going offensively and thats why you have seen some horrendous shot attempts. If we had a legit PG I think it would make her life 100x easier but we dont so everyone just has to step it up down the stretch.
I just think also she needs another full offseason in the weight room to trim down, that would make a world of difference in her conditioning and agility (it will help on both sides of the ball). Rosario as much as she struggled at times trimmed down dramatically in such a short time here so I think that will obviously be a focus for Williams this offseason
But I also want to agree with the post above. LSU can struggle to find a groove because we spend way too much time forcing it into Reese and not taking what the defense gives us at times.

She wasn’t that bad yesterday but Reese and Hailey were terrible
Posted on 3/23/24 at 10:40 am to Tigerbait357
yeah, weight room and training would help her game, she's a lil too heavy down low to me. Needs to lay off the big macs, but yeah losing some weight would have with he speed and quickness tremendously.

She wasn't that bad, I agree with that, but you can see that her game is not the same.
Posted on 3/23/24 at 10:53 am to tucoco
She made a couple of clutch 3’s yesterday

The turnovers were an absolute joke.
Hailey was terrible and watching Angel run down the court with the ball like a PG was very disturbing

Seems like she slammed into the freshman wall and then got injured. She needs to get her legs back under her and the confidence will follow.

Once the ball goes in it never comes back out. Attempted layup, rebound than another missed layup, rebound then fouled.

She is not in peak shape.

Coach said selfichness was part of the problem.
Didn't Mikala have a foot/ankle injury a few weeks back.
She may still be handicapped.

Unfortunately that's really what the WBB game has grown into.

She was 5/10 from the floor, including 2/4 from 3. Pretty solid shooting stats.

I don’t know if slump is the right word.
She definitely fell off a couple of months ago. A lot of people thought she’d be the best player on the team by now based on how she started and her obvious talent.
That hasn’t happened.
