"Help us wish future Tiger Grace Knox a happy birthday 🥳," the caption of the original post read.

Knox made an official visit to the Tigers in the second week of September. She chose the Tigers over top colleges across the nation, including USC, Texas, Tennessee and UCLA. On Nov. 6, the Tigers announced they had secured the commitment of the Rancho Cucamonga native. She also shared her thought process behind her commitment.

"Being able to bond with the coach that I’d want to play for and have passion with," Knox told On3.

It was important for Knox to understand the style of play and her fit into the program. She wanted to be her best self as the location was the least of her concerns.

Grace Knox is the No. 4 recruit from the 2025 class (On3). She charted 13.9 points and 9.8 rebounds per game in her freshman year at Spring Valley High School. She played a crucial role in her side's run to the NIAA 5A semifinals. Knox recorded 17.2 ppg and 11.9 rpg in her junior year after remaining on the sidelines due to injuries in her sophomore year.

Kim Mulkey's Visit to Divine Bourrage's High School

Due to the college finals, the LSU Tigers coach and staff had some free time this week. So, they visited five-star shooting guard Divine Bourrage in the Davenport North Wildcats' game against Central DeWitt. However, it was not the Wildcats' day as they lost 52-42.

As for Mulkey's Tigers, they've been sensational this season. They have yet to lose a game as Mikaylah Williams, Flau'Jae Johnson and Aneesah Morrow continue to be the heart of their game.
