The addition of MiLaysia Fulwiley represents a seismic shift in SEC power dynamics. The junior guard averaged 11.7 points while shooting an efficient 43.8% from the field for South Carolina last season, earning SEC Sixth Player of the Year honors despite playing just 18.4 minutes per game.
Johnson bypassed the WNBA Draft to return for her senior season bringing back her 18.3 points and 5.6 rebounds per game production.
Williams emerged as a consistent offensive threat with 17.5 points per game during her sophomore campaign. Her poise under pressure and three-level scoring ability give the Tigers multiple offensive creators who can take over games when needed.
Joyner arrives from East Carolina, where she was a double-double machine, averaging 15.0 points and 9.2 rebounds while accumulating an impressive 41 career double-doubles.
Koval, a 6’5″ transfer from Notre Dame brings much needed size and rim protection to the LSU frontcourt. Despite modest freshman numbers (5.3 points, 4.7 rebounds), Koval’s traditional center skills should flourish in Mulkey’s system.
