About Jaya
Expert Analysis
Mike Benson | Prep Girls Hoops Scout
Jaya starts the 2030 rankings as the #1 ranked player in the state of North Dakota. She is a second year varsity player for the Deacons and had an incredible year in 2025-2026. She finished the year averaging 17.1 points, 3.9 rebounds, 2.2 assists, and 1.5 steals per game, earning her a spot on the All-EDC team. Her 17.1 points are good for top 5 in the EDC and top 15 in the state, with nearly every girl ahead of her being at least two years older and seven girls being Division 1 prospects and five being Division 2 prospects. Taylor plays with great energy and effort. She is one of the quickest players in the state and is incredibly skilled. She is very good at getting to the basket and can finish in very creative ways, often finishing through contact and getting to the free-throw line for And-1 opportunities. I am excited to see how the Spring and Summer AAU seasons treat Jaya.
