LSU women’s basketball signee Mikaylah Williams to compete with Team USA at FIBA 3×3 U18 World Cup

LSU already has a bona fide 3×3 superstar on its roster in Hailey Van Lith, who competed with Team USA this summer. Now, it has a rising star in that event in signee Mikaylah Williams.

The five-star prospect and No. 1 player in the 2023 recruiting class will compete with Team USA at the FIBA 3×3 U18 World Cup in Debrecen, Hungary, from Aug. 30 to Sept. 3. Williams won a gold medal with Team USA last summer and is the reigning MVP from the last two 3×3 World Cups.

Williams will join an LSU roster this season that is absolutely loaded, but she could make an immediate impact as a true freshman on a team that expects to repeat as national champions after landing two of the top transfers in the country in Van Lith and forward Aneesah Morrow.
