USC freshman JuJu Watkins has taken the college basketball world by storm. Her productive season has propelled the Trojans women's basketball team to nearly the top of the college basketball ranks. Watkins is among the growing list of stars in women's college basketball that is headlined by upperclassmen such as Iowa's Caitlin Clark, LSU's Angel Reese, and UConn's Paige Bueckers.
Watkins broke nearly every USC women’s basketball record this season during her rise to stardom. The Trojans finished the season strong, winning 12 of their last 13 games, and are preparing for Saturday's first round NCAA Division I women's basketball tournament game against Texas A&M University–Corpus Christi. 2024 NCAA WOMEN'S BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT SELECTIONS REVEALED USC basketball legend Cheryl Miller has been a fixture at USC games this season.
Watkins averaged 27 points, 7.2 rebounds and 3.2 assists per game during the regular season. Clark, the NCAA Division I all-time leading scorer across men's and women's basketball, is the only player to average more points than Watkins this season.
