As expected, LSU Tigers star Angel Reese has bid farewell to her college career in favor of a move to the WNBA. The 21-year-old officially announced her decision to enter the 2024 WNBA Draft on Wednesday, which naturally, came with an emotional farewell message for LSU.
Reese may have spent just two years with the Tigers, but there’s no denying that her impact on the program has been tremendous.
