How To Watch LSU Women's Basketball At The Women's Cayman Islands Classic

The 2023 NCAA Women's Basketball National Champion LSU Women's Basketball team travels to the Cayman Islands Classic just after Thanksgiving to compete in one of the most challenging holiday basketball showcases in the country. 

The Tigers already suffered an early season loss when the then No.1-ranked Tigers fell to Colorado 92-78 in Las Vegas. The Tigers bounced back with three straight wins. 

But the Cayman Islands Classic will include a pair of talented opponents over the two days for LSU. 

Here's what to know and how to watch

Angel Reese, Hailey Van Lith Are Established Women's Basketball Stars For LSU

It's not a surprise that LSU was the preseason No.1 team in the country due to the talent on the roster. 

Angel Reese was the leader of the LSU team in 2023 and was the 2023 Final Four Most Outstanding Player as well as the 2023 BET Sportswomen of the Year and 2023 ESPY Best Breakthrough Athlete. 

Reese, who played two years at Maryland before transfering to LSU, averaged  23 points per game for the Tigers last season. 

While she was the most impactful transfer last season, Haley Van Lith could be that this season. 

A star at Louisville the last three seasons where she helped the Cardinals reach the 2022 Final Four and scored 1,553 points, Van Lith stunned the sport when she committed to LSU. In four games she's averaging just over 10 points per game. 

Mikaylah Williams Off To A Great Start For LSU

Freshman Mikaylah Williams, the No.1-ranked player in her recruiting class and McDonald's All-American, is off to a sensational start to her career. 

She scored 88 points in her first four games, including 42 against Kent State on Nov. 14.
