USC women’s basketball star JuJu Watkins is still in the midst of her true freshman season, but she’s already taken the sport by storm.
The No. 1 recruit in the nation in the 2023 class, Watkins hit the ground running with 32 points in her collegiate debut, and she hasn’t slowed down since, turning in a 51-point game against Stanford earlier this month. She’s viewed as the next top rising star in the sport, and she showed off some of her talent on Friday night.
During warmups with the Trojans, Watkins effortlessly sank a one-handed heave from all the way behind the bench. As the USC women’s basketball official account said, there’s your QB1 right there.
