According to HoopGurlz, Mikaylah Williams is the top-ranked recruit in the Class of 2023.

Williams, a guard from Louisiana, chose LSU over other schools.

In order to take my game to the next level and to continue to learn and grow as a young woman, there's only one place where I want to be. In her video announcement, Williams stated that she was home. I'm going to attend the Louisiana State University.

Grateful for the process and excited to announce where I will be playing college basketball! @playerstribune pic.twitter.com/eWRqa6R7YU

She earned a spot on the US team for the U17 World Cup in Hungary after winning gold with Team USA in the 3x3 U18 World Cup.

She was named the Louisiana Girls Basketball Player of the Year in March after a junior season in which she averaged 22.8 points, 8.0 rebound, 3.7 assists and 2.2 steals.

The LSU women's basketball team is looking to return to the Final Four for the first time in six years and return to the conversation as a title contender. LSU lost to Ohio State in the second round of the NCAA tournament.

With a number of seniors leaving the program, Mulkey was active in the transfer portal, bringing in Angel Reese from Maryland, LaDazhia Williams from Missouri, Kateri Poole from Ohio State, and Jasmine Carson from West Virginia.
