This will be an interesting game for the LSU fans to watch two stars Aneesah Morrow and Angel Reese before the new year. It would be a form of celebration for them. Morrow has scored an exceptional 18.3 points in the 13 games she has played so far. Additionally, she also has a great play in rebounds, steals, and blocks. Thus, she has contributed both offensively and defensively for her team. The LSU already brought excitement to a lot of fans during their last game at the Maryland and this time it would be the Louisiana crowd who would get the chance to witness brilliance.
An obvious player to watch would be Reese. Since her return, Reese has been stupendous in her performances. She has potted 19.9 points per game with 10 rebounds per contest. She therefore averages a double-double. Reese dropped her season’s second-highest points against the Coppin State with 26 on board. She would be looking to continue that on-song performance and take it from where she left it last match.

For the Jacksonville, they have found a star in Edyn Battle. Battle leads her team in two departments of points and assists average. She has an average of 19.9 points per game with 2.3 assists per match. If the Jacksonville are to win this game it has to be on the back Battle. She has demonstrated her skills this season, scoring a season-high of 29 points. Now all she has to do is bank on her brilliance and produce an exceptional performance for her team to take home a victory before the end of the year.
Head to Head
The Dolphins would be looking to end their three losses streak while on the other hand the LSU would be keen on improving upon their 11-match winning streak. The game will be bent towards the LSU and they might utilize this one to test their bench strength and rotate players, giving everyone a good time on the hardwood.
Prediction
Overall, the game will be poised toward the LSU. The only hope for the Jacksonville is to better their game and propel Battle to pound points on the LSU. Only then they can look to keeping a neck-to-neck competition. If the Jacksonville win somehow it will be a big moral booster for them.
