LSU forward LaDazhia Williams was chosen in the second round of the WNBA Draft by the Indiana Fever on Monday, No. 17 overall.

Williams, a 6-foot-4 forward who transferred from Missouri, averaged 9.9 points and 6.0 rebounds — but her two best games came in the clutch. She had career-high 24 points against Utah in the Sweet 16 and 20 points in the Tigers’ national championship game victory against Iowa, adding five rebounds and three steals.

Williams was the first LSU player picked in the 2023 draft, ahead of guard Alexis Morris, who had been projected as a first- or second-round pick.

Earlier on Monday, ESPN had projected Williams as a third-round pick.
