Former LSU standout Aneesah Morrow was chosen as the seventh overall pick by the Connecticut Sun in the 2025 WNBA Draft. Known for her exceptional performance in her senior season, Morrow led the nation in rebounds and double-doubles, propelling LSU to the Elite Eight in the NCAA Tournament.
Connecticut Sun strategically picked Morrow to fill the gap left by departing starters, along with selecting Saniya Rivers from NC State in consecutive picks. With impressive stats of 18.7 points and 13.5 rebounds per game during the 2024-25 season, Morrow's skills as a forward have been acknowledged among the best in the SEC, following a successful collegiate career at DePaul and LSU. Her remarkable career totals of 2,852 points, 1,714 rebounds, and over 100 double-doubles position her as one of the elite players in Division I history, showcasing her prowess on both offense and defense as she transitions to the professional level.
