“Somebody be lying”: Mom Kia Brooks playfully exposes $1.5 million NIL-valued Flau'jae Johnson after arriving late for pick up ahead of Oklahoma game

Flau'jae Johnson's mom Kia Brooks playfully mocked her daughter's arrival to pick her up for No. 7 LSU's game against No. 13 Oklahoma at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center on Thursday. Brooks, along with her husband and kids, flew from Atlanta, Georgia, and were waiting for Johnson to pick them up.

As the guard, with a $1.5 million NIL valuation (as per On3), arrived in her Mercedes AMG, Brooks began recording her and playfully joking about her late arrival.

"Somebody be lying, somebody be lying. That was the longest. You got a ticket," she said in the story.

"She said she was 20 mins away, never again," Brooks wrote.

Brooks has not only been a constant supporter of Flau'jae Johnson but also the entire LSU Tigers team.

She highlighted Annesah Morrow's multidimensional impact for the Tigers last month, hyped Kailyn Gilbert for her game-winning bucket against Tennessee, supported freshman Jada Richards in her college journey and more.
