Former LSU guard Last-Tear Poa entered the transfer portal with one year of eligibility remaining, following the NCAA’s recent rule change regarding junior college seasons. Poa joins forward Sa’Myah Smith among the confirmed portal exits from Kim Mulkey’s roster this offseason.
Center Aaliyah Del Rosario, who averaged limited minutes as a sophomore, also departed. Guards Poa and Mjracle Sheppard both sought more consistent roles after rotating as secondary ball-handlers alongside Flau’jae Johnson and Mikaylah Williams.
Poa, a Melbourne native, averaged 2.0 points, 1.0 rebounds, and 1.9 assists per game in 2024-25. She shot 24.5% from the field across 27 appearances.
Off the court, Poa reacted to Billie Eilish’s “Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour” announcement on Instagram, posting:
“I’M SO THERE” in her story.

LSU’s Last-Tear Poa transfers to Arizona State; program sees significant roster turnover
Last-Tear Poa, who joined LSU before its 2023 national championship run, appeared in 102 games over three seasons with 27 starts. She averaged two points per game in 2024-25 and recorded six points and two assists in LSU’s win over Iowa in the 2023 national title game.
