There’s drama in the Bayou. Defending national champion LSU has been without All-American Angel Reese for the Tigers’ past two games and there is still no word on when she might return or what the reason is for her absence.
Reese has not been seen with the seventh-ranked and defending national champion Tigers at the Cayman Islands Classic basketball tournament.
LSU does not play in the tournament until they face Niagara on Friday. LSU also are scheduled to play Virginia on Saturday.
In the meantime, Reese was spotted showing how unselfish she is by serving the homeless community back in Baton Rouge.
Reese, who is one of the most popular and commercially successful players in her sport, has missed LSU’s previous two games against Texas Southern on Monday and Southeastern Louisiana last Friday for reasons that have not been told to the public.
Mulkey, a four-time national championship-winning and Hall of Fame coach, has declined to go into detail about why Reese has not been with the team lately.

While her teammates were traveling on Wednesday, Reese posted a video of herself on social media in which she looked at the camera while an audio clip played of Deion Sanders saying, “What about me would make you think that I care about your opinion of me?”
In the games she has missed, the Tigers won two games by wide margins and have not lost since dropping their opener in Las Vegas to then-No 20 Colorado.
