Raven Johnson has made no secret of her desire to reunite with Ta'Niya Latson, who was her former high school teammate in Atlanta. The South Carolina guard shared that information with reporters last month after Latson entered the transfer portal.

It wasn't a surprise then to see Latson transfer to South Carolina from Florida State and Johnson return to the Gamecocks for another year. The two friends are making up for lost time, as evidenced by their recent get-together with their other South Carolina teammates.
