JuJu’s UCLA Hate Takes Unexpected Turn - LITE

Hey, Hoophead!

As we celebrate Women’s History Month, a big shoutout to the women who built this game into what it is today and to those who continue to take it to new heights.

Now, shifting to today’s agenda: We hope you all soaked in the final loaded slate of ranked hoops. The stars left it all on the floor in their regular-season finales. But while the games delivered, it was actually JuJu Watkins who stole the spotlight after being placed in what was likely one of the most awkward positions of her career.

• On an emotion-charged Senior Day, the Lady Vols threw everything they had at Vanderbilt but ultimately came up short, with Mikayla Blakes erupting for 34 points.

• South Carolina posted a season-low scoring output, yet it proved just enough to slip past Kentucky and secure the win.

• Another standout performance from Hannah Hidalgo powered the Irish to an upset over Louisville.
