LSU senior forward Aneesah Morrow suffered an apparent left foot injury on Saturday in the third quarter of the Tigers’ SEC semifinal game against Texas. After a drive, Morrow hit the floor and was helped off the floor by staff and teammate Flau’jae Johnson, not putting any weight on her left foot. She was ruled out for the game and returned to the bench in the fourth quarter with a boot on her foot.
According to ESPN sideline reporter Holly Rowe, Morrow had shown up to the gym during pregame with a boot on her left foot, signaling a lingering ailment or some kind of preventative measure ahead of the game.
Morrow’s injury occurred at the 7:53 mark in the third quarter. To that point, the senior had led her team in scoring (10 points), tallied four steals and two rebounds. LSU trailed by five points, down 32-27 to No. 2 seed Texas, when Morrow departed the game.

The senior is the team’s leader in rebounds (14 per game) and steals (2.5 per game) and second in scoring (18.7 points per game), earning recognition on the SEC’s first team and All-defensive team. In the Tigers’ SEC tournament quarterfinal game, Morrow finished with 36 points, 14 rebounds and three steals in LSU’s 101-87 win.
The Tigers were already without Johnson, a sophomore guard and All-SEC first team selection, who was ruled out of the SEC tournament with a right shin ailment but was expected to be available for the NCAA Tournament. For LSU’s quarterfinal and semifinal games, Johnson wore a boot on her right foot.
