LSU women’s basketball legend Seimone Augustus shared a wonderful embrace with 2023 women’s NCAA Tournament star Angel Reese after the Tigers won this year’s national title.
Augustus is one of the most accomplished women’s basketball players of all time, winning four WNBA titles with the Minnesota Lynx. Her No. 33 is retired by both LSU and Minnesota.
Her alma mater also put up a statue in her honor outside of its basketball arena this past January.
Of course, Augustus was on hand for LSU’s historic title win on Sunday against Iowa, and she shared in a really awesome hug with Reese after the victory. Augustus also shared some praise for Reese on the win.
Well, isn’t that just the coolest thing? LSU past and present embracing in such a fantastic moment for the program really is what March Madness is all about.
Reese will join Augustus in LSU women’s basketball history, and they’ll get to celebrate now in the school’s historic title.
