Expert Analysis
Tink Butler | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Liya has good size and a nice frame for a guard. She plays under control and never looks rushed when getting to the basket, showing patience and poise with the ball in her hands. She has a good set shot from around 13 feet and has also shown range out to the three-point line. Liya does a nice job picking her spots offensively, taking what the defense gives her instead of forcing the action. Her combination of size, pace, and shooting touch makes her a solid guard prospect who should continue to improve with more reps and confidence.

Read EvaluationCharles Foster | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Liya has the versatility to play and guard positions one through four, bringing a high basketball IQ and consistent effort on every possession. Defensively, she was routinely in the right position, whether securing rebounds, providing help defense, or winning loose-ball situations. Offensively, her combination of size and skill allows her to operate effectively in multiple roles and score at all three levels. When matched up with smaller guards, her frame creates a clear advantage, while against bigger defenders, her quickness allows her to gain separation.

Liya was at the EYG clinic, and she always has her motor turned all the way up. She was active in aspect of the game, getting rebounds, blocking shots and gathering loose balls. She showed a good feel for the game, posting up to score and effectively passing out of the post. She played great help defense and moved well without the ball. She’s a very skilled player.

Looks like a natural athlete. Liya is physical on the defensive end and understands how to jump passing lane.
