LSU's Clutch Forward Who Delivered a National Title
LaDazhia Williams was the unsung hero of LSU's 2023 championship run, starting all 34 games with 9.9 PPG and a career-high 6.0 RPG, then exploding for 13.8 PPG and 5.5 RPG in the NCAA Tournament—including a 24-point masterpiece (11-of-14 FG) in the Sweet 16 win over Utah amid foul trouble for stars like Angel Reese. Her elite finishing (top-10 Mizzou FG% history), rebounding tenacity, and poise under pressure make her a reliable, high-IQ big who elevates teams in crunch time—perfect fit for squads needing battle-tested depth without the diva drama.
