About Maleah
Expert Analysis
Michael Crum-Stowe | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Maleah is a sharpshooter with impressive range and remarkable consistency, making her a constant threat from beyond the arc. She has the ability to catch fire quickly and punish defenses that leave her any space, often shifting the momentum of a game with her shooting alone. But what makes Maleah even more dangerous is her versatility—she’s not just a perimeter threat. She can put the ball on the floor, attack closeouts, and finish strong at the rim, making her a well-rounded offensive weapon. Her ability to score at all three levels keeps defenses guessing and makes her a cornerstone of her team’s offense.

Young is one of two representatives from 6A Terry that comprise The SisterHood Lady Lions 16U Bolden roster this AAU season. She did her part – and then some – in ensuring the Mississippi-based team would return home after a perfect weekend in Guntersville. She stands at 5-foot-8 but will put herself in position to grab rebounds – a trait not always common in backcourt players. Young’s weekend included a nine-point performance in that 67-37 victory over Team Elite Hubbard 16U Josh. In addition, she stayed clear of the referee’s whistle as she did not have a personal foul called against her in that game.
