Johnson, a first team All-Southeastern Conference selection for the No. 7 Tigers, was held out of LSU's regular-season finale that Ole Miss won 85-77.

Without Williams, the Tigers picked up a 21-point win over the Wildcats, a 30-point victory over Auburn and an 8-point win over Ole Miss. She returned for the SEC Tournament title game against South Carolina but came off the bench and scored only 2 points in 23 minutes of action. LSU lost 79-72, then reached the NCAA Tournament’s Elite Eight.

This story was updated to include an injury update for Flau'jae Johnson. So much of LSU's success this season can be attributed to its star players Aneesah Morrow, Mikaylah Williams and Flau'jae Johnson.
