Trayron Milton finds humor in being arrested during an LSU vs. South Carolina game, with Flau’jae Johnson’s brother posting a TikTok video mocking the incident.
Trayron Milton, who is Flau’jae Johnson’s brother, shared a TikTok video teasing the LSU guard after his arrest during last season’s SEC Tournament final.
The video featured Johnson dancing alongside Milton with the caption: “Distracting my brother so he doesn’t jump on the court next season.” Despite his arrest, Milton appears unapologetic as the TikTok has already garnered over 83,000 likes.
The incident took place during the SEC Tournament final between LSU and South Carolina, escalating into a brawl after an altercation between Johnson and then-Gamecocks player Kamilla Cardoso. Cardoso later apologized for shoving Johnson to the ground.
Milton’s arrest stemmed from attempting to defend his sister by entering the court, resulting in charges of assault, battery, and disorderly conduct by the Greenville Police Department.
