LSU Tigers women’s basketball team, led by Angel Reese became the 2023 NCAA champion for the first time under the guidance of Kim Mulkey. The 16-year-old’s future looks bright as she would be playing for one of the best college basketball teams.
However, can she follow in the footsteps of Brittney Griner? Let’s take a look.
Daughter of Shaquille O’Neal could be the next big thing in WNBA
Griner was a hoops prodigy who became one of the best in the WNBA, but Me’Arah still has a long way to go. However, she could be like the eight-time WNBA All-Star as he has shown glimpses of her potential on several occasions. She went to Crossroad Schools in California and averaged 5.3 points, 3.3 rebounds and 4.7 assists in his freshman year. She averaged 2.7 blocks per game which was quite impressive as a center.
When she would be debuting for the Tigers, she would hopefully be playing under the Hall of Famer coach. She has molded a lot of young players and the NBA legend’s daughter could also learn great things from her. So, there’s definitely a possibility of Me’Arah O’Neal becoming the next big thing in women’s basketball.
