Acree's list of offers now exceeds 20, with several big-name Power 4 schools like South Carolina, Tennessee, Baylor, and Miami (FL) pushing hard for her services.
247Sports Director of Scouting for women's basketball Brandon Clay describes Acree as one of the more productive Class of 2027 prospects inside the Peach State. "She’s improving as an outside shooter which is important for her next level success," states Clay. "Acree does a good job of finding the basketball. She finds her way into rebounds on both ends of the floor and has been able to do so for the duration of her school career. With her frame and length, look for Acree to take another jump when she gets to college and plays with and against similar level talent on a day-to-day basis."
5-star prospect Caroline Bradley will also be in attendance for LSU's top-10 showdown against South Carolina on Saturday. Hailing from Oak Grove, Bradley is rated by 247Sports as the No. 7 overall player and the No. 1 center in the country for the 2027 recruiting class.
Tip-off between the Tigers and Gamecocks is set for 7:30 p.m. CT. The game will be nationally televised on ABC.
