In the Kim Mulkey era of LSU women's basketball, the Tigers have heard multiple of their former players' names get called during the WNBA Draft. From Angel Reese to Flau'Jae Johnson and Aneesah Morrow, the purple and gold are well represented in the professional ranks.
The 2027 draft falls in between the end of the college season and the 2027 WNBA season, which starts in May. ESPN's Michael Voepel projects two first rounders will come out of LSU in his first mock draft.
Mikaylah Williams is projected as the No. 5 pick. While the draft lottery is still being finalized, Williams goes to the Portland Fire in ESPN's mock. The six-foot guard earned first-team All-SEC honors each of the last two years. Over her three years with the Tigers, she averaged
15.4 points and 4.9 rebounds per game with a 48% shooting percentage.
After two seasons at South Carolina, Fulwiley transferred to LSU. She won SEC sixth woman of the year for the second-straight season. In her first season donning the purple and gold, the five-foot-nine guard averaged 14.6 points per game. Voepel mocked her at No. 8 overall to the New York Liberty.
