USC women’s basketball player JuJu Watkins reacts after throwing out the ceremonial first pitch prior to a game between the Angels and Dodgers on June 22, 2024, at Dodger Stadium. LOS ANGELES — The festivities slowly cleared Thursday morning on the track at Hollywood High, and JuJu Watkins had begun to walk off from one Los Angeles engagement in the direction of another, pausing and turning as somebody cried her name.

And ever since, she and Watkins have joked the surgery was – in a sense – a blessing.
