LSU point guard Alexis Morris has declared for the WNBA draft, she announced via Instagram. 

After a postseason run that ended with the Tigers’ first NCAA championship, Morris thanked the LSU fan base and said she will enter the draft. 

Early projections have the 5-foot-6 senior as the No. 21-rated player in the pool. The WNBA has 12 teams. The draft lasts three rounds. It will happen Monday in New York. 

Morris, originally from Beaumont, Texas, was recruited to play for Kim Mulkey at Baylor but was dismissed from the team. She bounced from Baylor to Rutgers to Texas A&M before she found her way back Mulkey at LSU in 2021.

She was a fifth-year senior this season. 

Morris averaged 15.4 points, 2.9 rebounds and 4.1 assists this season. Against Iowa in Sunday’s championship game, she shot 57% from the field en route to 21 points in nine assists.
