Kim Mulkey’s next roster added a new piece Sunday.

Iowa State transfer Jada Williams committed to the Tigers according to multiple reports. Williams, a senior-to-be, averaged 15.3 points and 7.7 assists for the Cyclones this season. That assist total ranked in the top five nationally.

Williams was only a 30 percent three point shooter but made 80 percent from the line while handling the ball for Iowa State. She started her college career at Arizona where she signed as a McDonald’s All-American in 2024.

LSU will have to replace the production from Flau’jae Johnson in the backcourt, and Williams is a big first step in that direction.
