LSU Tigers women’s basketball star Angel Reese made headlines during the round of 32 in the tournament when she waved goodbye to a Middle Tennessee State player as she fouled out in the third quarter. Reese’s gesture was captured on camera by ESPN and sparked discussion on social media, with some criticizing her actions while others defended her.
Despite the controversy, Reese led her team to an 83-56 victory, finishing the game with an impressive performance of 20 points, 11 rebounds, three assists, and two steals. Her leadership on the court has been instrumental in LSU’s success, as they advance to the Sweet 16 to face off against the winner of UCLA and Creighton.
Reese has previously faced criticism for her outspoken and competitive nature, as seen in last year’s national championship when she engaged in trash talk with an opponent. However, her fans appreciate her intensity and passion for the game, praising her for her fearless attitude.
As the Tigers continue their journey in the tournament, all eyes will be on Reese to see if she can lead her team to victory once again. The Blue Raiders, on the other hand, ended their season with a commendable 30-5 record, highlighted by an upset over Louisville.
