Cisse Impresses in Win over Vandy
Moussa Cisse posted nine points (3-3 FG, 3-4 FT), six rebounds and one steal across 19 minutes during Saturday’s 69-56 win over Vanderbilt. Cisse made all three of his field goal attempts during Saturday’s win over Vanderbilt. The senior missed just one shot that occurred at the free-throw line which was the only miss he had all game. Expect the center to look to score more after a near perfect offensive outing against Vanderbilt.
Hannibal Scores Season High 18 Points
Trae Hannibal logged 18 points (5-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 7-7 FT), four rebounds, two assists and two steals over 23 minutes during Saturday’s 93-78 loss to Auburn. The senior led the tea in scoring with 18 points and shot a perfect seven-for-seven despite falling to Auburn on Saturday. This was a season-high for Hannibal and will continue to be a solid bench asset for LSU moving forward.
