    LSU basketball star Flau'jae Johnson officially dropped her podcast "Best of Both Worlds with Flau'jae" on July 4th. Johnson's first guest on the show was WNBA superstar Breanna Stewart.

    They shared some conversations about the best players in women's college basketball and the New York Liberty forward showed high praise for the Tiger. Johnson then sent an emotional message back to Stewart.

    "Obviously Flau, I'm definitely paying attention to what you do. What I like about your game is the way that you kind of just work through it. You do what the team needs and continuing to kind of expand your game, stretch it," said Stewart via Best of Both Worlds on Instagram.

    Stewart explained that Johnson's willingness to be a team player and versatility on both ends of the floor separate her from other NCAA stars.

    Johnson reposted the quote from Stewart on Instagram, attaching the tearing-up emojis, sharing an emotional reaction to the kind words from Stewart.

    During the 2023–24 season with the Tigers, Johnson averaged 14.9 points, 5.5 rebounds, and 2.1 steals. The Georgia native will be heading into her junior year at LSU next season.

    Johnson is currently 20 years old and she'll be eligible for the WNBA draft in two years. The Tigers have been one of the best teams in women's college basketball for the past few seasons and Johnson is now going back to Baton Rouge as an upperclassman.
