Flau’jae Johnson’s mom, Kia Brooks, sparks backlash after LSU’s loss to South Carolina Gamecocks, launching Dawn Staley attack and bold WNBA Draft lottery claims.

The star-studded game between the LSU Tigers and the South Carolina Gamecocks concluded back on February 14. However, the aftermath of the game still seems to be very much on. In recent times, we have witnessed some weird college basketball moments. Remember when Benjy Taylor was placed in handcuffs at an HBCU game? Now, adding more twist to the realm of NCAA, Flau’Jae Johnson’s mother had a wild rant to share.

As the game came to an end, South Carolina won 79-72. But Johnson’s mother, Kia Brooks, shocked the fans by attacking Dawn Staley along with a WNBA draft rant. In an update on X, an account by the name ‘The Art of Dialogue’ posted a screencast of Brooks’ live session.

“We’ve never beat South Carolina, cool. But what is going on today? Flau’jae is beating South Carolina in real life. No disrespect to any players or Dawn, we beat them in real life,” said Johnson’s mother.

“Even in basketball, she’s bigger than them on the floor. You go look at the stats, she beat every player on the floor that game. Let’s get real, no South Carolina player is going before Flau’jae in the draft. South Carolina didn’t beat Flau’jae; South Carolina beat LSU. What South Carolina player this year is a lottery pick?” she further added.

Now, there is no denying the fact that Johnson is an incredible talent. In fact, she is being touted as one of the most bankable players by NIL prospects. But such an incident is as bizarre as the time an Ohio High School basketball game turned into complete mayhem.

Meanwhile, coming back to Johnson’s mother, Kia Brooks received some significant backlash.

As soon as the post gained traction, fans flocked to the comments section.

“Flaujae’s mom is gonna be the reason people hate on her watch,” one fan said.

“Man, her daughter’s been doing fine, now she’s attracting unnecessary hate for her. People hate for no reason, she should know that. It’s not good at all,” another fan said.

“What is worse than I hate for her narcissistic a** mom could affect her,” said a third.

“Telling my son to avoid any girl who has a mom that talks like this,” quipped a fan.

“Flau’jae has not beaten South Carolina her whole career. Meanwhile F*t Mommy done had many kids who rely on Flau’jae to pay bills, buy designer clothes, w**d and their cars,” detailed a user.

“Saying “no disrespect” and then being disrespectful 💁🏾‍♂️.  

“Beating SC in life” what does that even mean?” questioned another fan.

“There won’t be a wnba soon so don’t hold your breath,” chimed in another.

Surely, Johnson’s stardom is getting seriously affected here. Now, as the fans have teamed up against her mother, the onus will be on Brooks to maybe come up with some damage control.
