A top women’s basketball recruit just committed to one of the top programs of the SEC. Grace Knox will play for the LSU Tigers beginning in 2025.

Knox announced the commitment with a post on X, the website formerly known as Twitter.

“100%,” Knox said.

Her commitment adds to an already superb recruiting class in 2025. Zack Nagy noted that she’s the fourth five-star recruit in the loaded class, joining Bella Hines, Divine Bourrage, and Zakiyah Johnson.

Don’t expect LSU women’s basketball to slow down anytime soon. Angel Reese helped lead the Tigers to a National Championship in 2023. Last season, the Tigers fell short of a repeat, but stand as one of the nation’s most talented teams in 2024. And it looks like that will again remain true in 2025.

The Tigers began the year on the right foot earlier in the week. In their season debut on Monday, LSU won 95-44 over Eastern Kentucky. The impressive victory was just the first of many this season.

With a rise in popularity, women’s college basketball expects to be a hot ticket and appointment television again this year. Paige Bueckers and Juju Watkins are among the nation’s biggest stars, as is LSU star Flau’jae Johnson.
