WATCH: Will Wade updates LSU basketball's progress ahead of season opener

LSU men's basketball coach Will Wade met with the media Thursday to discuss the Tigers' progress as the start of the 2026-27 regular season approaches.

After navigating roster eligibility issues throughout the preseason, Wade finally has his full roster cleared and available heading into Tuesday's season opener against New Orleans.

The Tigers have completed three exhibition games, including last Saturday's narrow 89-87 loss at Florida State, giving Wade and his staff an opportunity to evaluate a largely rebuilt team.
