All eyes are on LSU star Flau'jae Johnson as the 2026 WNBA Draft approaches tonight in New York City. After a decorated collegiate career that cemented her legacy in Baton Rouge, Johnson is poised to hear her name called and begin her professional journey.

Johnson's time with the Tigers came to a close last month following a heartbreaking Sweet 16 loss to Duke. That defeat now sets the stage for her next chapter. Playing all four seasons under Coach Kim Mulkey, Johnson was instrumental in LSU's national championship run during her freshman year and leaves as a multi-time All-American and All-SEC performer with over 2,000 career points.

Her final season showcased her consistent excellence, averaging 14.2 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 2.5 assists per game. She elevated her play in the NCAA tournament, averaging 19 points across three games, proving she shines brightest on the biggest stages.

Tonight marks the third consecutive year an LSU Tiger will be selected in the draft, and Johnson is expected to continue that proud tradition. As she awaits her future, the basketball world is buzzing with projections on which WNBA franchise will secure her dynamic two-way talent and championship pedigree.
