Former LSU women's basketball guard reveals transfer destination

Former LSU women's basketball guard Bella Hines transferred to TCU, per a report from On3's Talia Goodman on Sunday. The move comes after her lone season in Baton Rouge.

Hines was part of the top signing class in the 2026 recruiting cycle. She averaged 4.2 points per game, shooting 44% from the field. Most of her shots came from beyond the arc, helping stretch the floor for LSU's playmakers.

Early in SEC play, Hines saw few meaningful minutes but that changed in February. She played over 10 minutes five out of the seven games LSU played that month, upping her game as a scorer and defender.

Hines' decision to transfer came as a surprise, considering her strong finish to the season. She would've been in the running to start or be one of the first two players off the bench, but instead, she'll head to the Big 12.

TCU developed a reputation for scoring big pickups in the transfer portal. Last season, head coach Mark Campbell secured a commitment from former Notre Dame guard Olivia Miles and former Tiger Hailey Van Lith ahead of the 2024-25 season.
