When South Carolina needed Bree Hall the most, the junior guard stepped up in a serious way to help the Gamecocks take down LSU and stay undefeated in a 76-70 win on Thursday night.
A couple of clutch Hall threes in the final quarter sealed the victory, and while she deserves all the credit, some is apparently going to Aliyah Boston. And yes, Boston is no longer at South Carolina and now plays for the Indiana Fever in the WNBA. But she was in attendance to watch her former team win.
South Carolina head coach Dawn Staley shouted Boston out for saying something to Hall during a timeout, and Boston actually talked about exactly what she said:
Dawn Staley on Bree Hall's clutch 3-pointers at the end of tonight's game:
"I gotta give it up to Aliyah Boston today 'cause she said something to Breezy during the timeout that really relaxed her, settled her down."@GamecockWBB @aa_boston @wachfox pic.twitter.com/vFwe3drXMx
