The LSU women's and men's basketball teams will play a doubleheader in New Orleans on Dec. 13 at the Smoothie King Center in the Compete 4 Cause Classic. The men will play SMU, while the women are set to face off against Louisiana Tech.

The LSU women's game against Louisiana Tech, which is Kim Mulkey's alma mater, will give the Tigers a third game in New Orleans for the 2025-26 season. The Tigers also play at Tulane on Nov. 17 and at UNO on Dec. 7.

Mulkey won two national championships while playing at La Tech in 1981 and 1982. She returned to the school as an assistant coach in 1988. Dec. 13 will mark the second time Mulkey has coached against the Bulldogs in her career. The first time was in 2009 when Mulkey's Baylor squad won 77-67 in Waco, Texas.
