Angel Reese’s 22 points, 14 rebounds lead No. 9 LSU past Kentucky 77-56

Associated Press  

— LSU star forward Angel Reese, who has some major life and career decisions looming, insists she’s “just trying to focus on the now and just enjoy the moment.” On Sunday, she played like it. Reese had 22 points, 14 rebounds, five blocks and three steals in what might have been her final regular-season game for LSU, and the ninth-ranked Tigers defeated reeling Kentucky 77-56. “There’s a lot of talent in Baton Rouge.. I’m sure they’ll have a great run.” Johnson helped spark LSU to a first-half lead as large as 17 points with a steal and difficult scoop shot over several defenders to finish a fast break. “We laid down and got complacent, let the crowd — everything going on — not really have us focused on the main thing,” Reese said of Kentucky’s late first-half run.
