Maldonado has a chance to be a really special player, and it’s pretty evident with her play this season. She’s helped Chiawana to a 21-0 regular season with just one game left before the playoffs. She’s third in scoring in the MCC at 16.5 PPG, and has been effective all over the floor with about seven rebounds per game, just under four assists, and 2.5 steals per contest. She has a smooth shot from outside (47.5%), and already displays a keen understanding of playing with pace and space.
