the support of head coach Kim Mulkey. She put on an eyebrow raising performance that has sent the college basketball world into a frenzy on Tuesday afternoon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">1\ufe0f\u20e32\ufe0f\u20e3\ud83c\udfdd is just scratching the surface of her potential<br><br>42 points in her fourth collegiate game for <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/mkwill12_?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@mkwill12_<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/oGlpSfApZE\">pic.twitter.com\/oGlpSfApZE<\/a><\/p>&mdash; LSU Women&#39;s Basketball (@LSUwbkb) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LSUwbkb\/status\/1724851732860338423?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 15, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<p>Williams put the entire nation on notice after a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/womens-college-basketball\/boxscore\/_\/gameId\/401588176\">42 point domination over Kent State<\/a> in front of a crowd of over 9,000 fans. The No. 1 recruit from Louisiana, Williams showcased her talents for everyone to see on Tuesday.  The 6-foot-1 guard finished with 3 steals, 3 assists, and 7 rebounds on 15-20 (75 percent) field goal shooting, 5-8 (62.5) percent beyond the arc.  She's just the 11th player to score 40 plus points in LSU history. The last player to score at least 42 points in a single game was <a href=\"https:\/\/lsusports.net\/sports\/wbball\/roster\/player\/cornelia-gayden\/\">Cornelia Gayden <\/a>in 1995 (49 points). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The LSU Tigers, led by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sports-reference.com\/cbb\/coaches\/kim-mulkey-1.html\">Mulkey,<\/a> move to 3-1 on the season, after dropping a disappointing season opener against Colorado. The reigning 2022-2023 National Champions remain one of the favorites to win it all again this year, especially with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/womens-college-basketball\/player\/_\/id\/4433402\/angel-reese\">Angel Reese <\/a>and the addition of Hailey Van Lith. Four games into the season, Williams <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/womens-college-basketball\/team\/stats\/_\/id\/99\">leads the tigers in scoring <\/a>with 22 points per game, and an astonishing 63.2 three-point percentage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\ud83d\udc40 42 Points by Mikaylah Williams!<br><br>It&#39;s the most points scored by a Freshman in WBB history. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/7VpJFClZae\">pic.twitter.com\/7VpJFClZae<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Ballislife Bets (@BallislifeBets) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BallislifeBets\/status\/1724640556150657398?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 15, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n\n\n\n<p>With the way LSU struggled against Colorado, Williams seems to be the missing key the Tigers desperately need. The person that's going to push her to the best of her abilities? Kim Mulkey. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"She can score anywhere,\" Mulkey told the press. \"I've been riding her because as good as she is, I don't think she knows how good she is. I think a lot of it will come with just making her play extended minutes as hard as she can. You saw today what she's capable of doing. She's a special talent.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Williams is a star in the making<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The guard has slowly made her way through headlines, as she's increased her production every game. In the last two matchups against Kent State and Mississippi Valley State, the freshman tallied a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/womens-college-basketball\/player\/gamelog\/_\/id\/5174267\/mikaylah-williams\">combined 52 points, 12 rebounds, 5 assists, and 4 steals.<\/a>  With a strong bodied frame, Williams has an extremely versatile skill set. Not afraid to pull from long range, No. 12 can also drive baseline, and has the capability of fighting through multiple bodies. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No, this is not a one and done. Mikaylah Williams is the real deal. She also plays on a talented roster, who knew exactly where to find her on the court. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"I wouldn't say I wanted the ball every trip, my teammates knew I had a hot hand and they were finding me,\" said Williams. \"I applaud them for finding me, and I was executing on the shots.\" <\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Mikaylah Williams just dropped 42.

With that said,  Coach Mulkey has an extensive coaching career, and has witness several stellar performances. In her third season with LSU, Mulkey knew exactly what she would be getting from Williams after recruiting her from Parkway High School. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Junior guard <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/womens-college-basketball\/player\/_\/id\/4684384\/aneesah-morrow\">Aneesah Morrow<\/a> knows the meaning of hard work. She finished with 17 points and 9 steals on 7-15 (46.6 percent) free throw shooting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"It makes me feel good, being able to give Mikaylah a pass and see her score other than shooting it myself,\" said Morrow. \"I get to see the work MK puts in everyday-- it's a non stop thing, she's very consistent, she work's hard everyday. To see that pay off is amazing.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">No. 12 is a Lousiana Native<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It's not everyday where freshman athletes are comfortable right off the jump, especially in front of her hometown fans at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center in Louisiana. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"It was fun, I just wanted to show the kids that it's possible,\" Williams continue. \"A little kid from Louisiana, being on this big stage is possible-- to do this and be big.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Admitting she previously had a career high 34 points in high school, Williams is adamant about about the work she puts in practice on a daily basis. An All-American in high school, the guard was named 3x FIBA 3x3 under 18 World Cup MVP, and was chosen as USA Basketball 3x3 Athlete of the year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"I think it all starts in practice, how you practice is how you play. Coach Mulkey had been riding me and staying on my tail about working hard, effort and everything.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>If anything, the future is very exciting for the LSU Tigers and Mikaylah Williams. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Stay tuned for more WNBA and NCAAW articles.<\/strong><em>&nbsp;<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/ballislife.com\/aces-defeat-liberty-win-championship\/\">Click here<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Sara Jane Gamelli is a full-time Sportswriter at Ballislife, and Sports Content Creator on Twitch and TikTok.
