Aneesah Morrow is living her best life right now. The DePaul sophomore is the hottest uncommitted commodity in the women's basketball transfer portal. Last weekend, she narrowed her choice down to three schools. One road takes her west to former women's basketball titan USC. Another leads her to 2021 National Champions South Carolina. Finally, she could head south to the reigning National Champions LSU. However, it's all about that power five and basketball royalty for Morrow, whatever path she takes.
In two collegiate seasons, Morrow is averaging 23.5 points per game and 13 rebounds per game. Furthermore, a majority of those rebounds come on defense as the 6’1 forward guards the paint like few others. She was fourth in scoring and seventh in rebounds last season. DePaul has ran their women's basketball program through Morrow the past two years. All three choices have pros and cons. Earlier in the week, Morrow showed off her style in the red and gold of USC. Now she's pulling headlines by visiting Baton Rogue.
Morrow Hypes Up Official LSU Visit
April 28 saw Aneesah Morrow officially visit LSU. It was a much-hyped, and much-documented visit. Morrow did TikToks with Angel Reese and took selfies with Flau'jae Johnson. Finally, the visit was capped off by Morrow dropping a video of herself in an LSU uniform with the caption "LSU fans where y'all at?" Safe to say that they showed out in force in the comments. We have to say, Morrow is looking good in the white and purple.
LSU is preparing to run the board in the 2023/24 season. ESPN's Charlie Creme ranked the team as the #2 overall team in March Madness 2024. However, that bracket was made before standout Louisville transfer Hailey Van Lith committed to the Tigers. Even without Morrow, LSU boasts Reese, van Lith, Johnson, #2 ranked freshman Mikaylah Williams and #7 ranked freshman Aalyah Del Rosario. Morrow would just be the cherry on the cake for Kim Mulkey's program. She also brings a strong defensive presence to an offense-heavy team. Are you hyped about LSU's lineup next season?
