South Carolina’s Chloe Kitts, Raven Johnson, and Tessa Johnson Show Love to Bree Hall on Her 22nd Birthday
Former South Carolina Gamecocks standout Bree Hall celebrated her 22nd birthday in style, and her former teammates made sure to show their love. Now a member of the Golden State Valkyries in the WNBA, Hall marked the occasion with a stylish Instagram post, sharing two photos — one in color and one in black and white — wearing jeans with her pants unbuttoned.
Naturally, her Gamecock sisters couldn’t resist joining in with celebratory (and cheeky) comments.
Chloe Kitts jumped into the comments with playful banter:
“Close your pants,” she joked.
Tessa Johnson added her own fun-loving shoutout:
“SOOOO YUMMYYYY,” she wrote.
Meanwhile, Raven Johnson kept it classic with a heartfelt message:
“Happy Birthday ❤️❤️❤️.”
Hall, who played four seasons under legendary coach Dawn Staley, was part of two NCAA championship teams — winning in 2022 and again during the Gamecocks’ undefeated 2024 season. After being selected in the second round of the 2025 WNBA Draft by the Indiana Fever, Hall was waived but quickly found a new home with the expansion team, the Golden State Valkyries, signing with them in June.
Kitts & Johnson Gear Up for Their Final Season
With Hall now in the pros, Chloe Kitts and Raven Johnson are preparing to lead the next chapter of Gamecock basketball.
Kitts, who averaged 10.2 points and 7.7 rebounds last season and was named SEC Tournament MVP, is expected to play an even larger role in her senior campaign. Johnson, returning as a redshirt senior, contributed 4.9 points and 4.5 rebounds per game and earned a spot on the All-SEC Defensive Team.
Both players officially announced in April that they would be back for one more ride, determined to finish strong after a heartbreaking loss to UConn in the 2025 national championship game.
With stars like Te-Hina Paopao, Sania Feagin, and Bree Hall now in the WNBA, all eyes will be on Kitts and Johnson as they anchor a new-look Gamecocks squad for what promises to be a high-stakes 2025–26 season.
