Not only does Singletary have more varsity experience than the typical 2030 since she first played as a seventh grader, she is also one of the higher-profile freshmen across South Carolina and already has an offer from Coastal Carolina. The 4A Irmo star was another of the day’s consistent playmakers and that ability will garner plenty of attention from opposing defenses. The ability to finish with her left hand is another element to her well-developed skillset and brings a heads-up, focused mentality whenever she steps on the court. She averaged 23.7 points, 8.7 rebounds, 3.6 steals and 3.6 assists last season as a Yellow Jackets eighth grader. 

Offseason developments solidified that Singletary will have the keys to the program at Irmo for the next four years. The Twelve Time product secured an offer back in June from Coastal Carolina. Singletary already has two seasons of varsity experience on her resumé and is now a freshman for a Yellow Jackets team that will return to the 4A ranks following a pair of seasons as a 5A Division 2 combatant. Singletary played in all 27 games last season and averaged 23.7 points, 8.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 3.6 steals per matchup. She was one of two from the class of 2030 on last season’s team. Singletary participated in this year’s Prep Girls Hoops Carolinas Freshman Showcase. 

Lailah showed once again while she is ranked #1 in South Carolina 2030 class. She and her team dominated the showcase and went undefeated. She lead the attack as the primary ball handler and efficient scorer. There were some AWWW moments from the crowd when she would make between the legs, crossover and hesitation moves to the basket. She also took on the task in several games and defended the other teams best offensive weapon.

A kid that knows how to score the basketball. She is currently ranked number one in her class because she averaged over 20 points a game this past season as an eighth grader. She loves having the ball in her hands and is able to make the correct play. Lailah has a great feel for the game whether it is knowing when to find ways to score or when to keep moving the ball in the offense to get someone else an open look.

Singletary first proved that she belonged at the high school varsity level as a seventh grader and has not looked back since. She is a Division I prospect who recently secured an offer from Coastal Carolina and spent this month’s initial live period in Las Vegas at Nike EYBL Session 3 with Twelve Time . Her ability to handle the ball with either hand and find lanes to the rim can especially throw defenses for a loop. Rebounding is another one of Singletary’s many positives. Singletary would compete in all 27 contests last season for Irmo while averaging 23.7 points, 8.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 3.6 steals per matchup. Her Yellow Jackets are moving from 5A back to 4A starting with the 2026-27 season. 

At the beginning of the month, Singletary secured her first Division I offer courtesy of Morehead State. The rising freshman star from 4A Irmo is bookending her June camp month with another Division I offer from Coastal Carolina. Singletary has worn the Twelve Time uniform during this year’s grassroots months. Singletary is another who has more varsity experience than the average rising freshman considering she first wore Yellow Jackets gold and black as a seventh grader. Singletary would average 23.7 points, 8.7 rebounds, 3.6 blocks and 3.6 assists in addition to playing in all 27 games. 

As June commenced, Singletary would land her first Division I offer as Morehead State extended one in her direction. One can guess that will be far from the last time such an offer will be fielded by Singletary. After a pair of seasons in the 5A Division 2 ranks, Singletary’s Irmo assembling will make its return to the 4A ranks next season. Singletary is playing up in class with Twelve Time EYCL 15U which spent May’s live period at Nike Session 2 in New Orleans. Singletary is looking to build on a 2025-26 season where she earned team co-captaincy duties as an eighth grader. She averaged 23.7 points, 8.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 3.6 steals per contest last season for the Yellow Jackets. 

When playing 4A Irmo as 3A Camden did at Tuesday’s camp, priority number one has to be to keep Singletary in check. The Bulldogs found out that accomplishing that task against the rising star Yellow Jackets freshman is very difficult. Singletary got her scoring day started with a pair of 3-pointers and then got out in transition for a fastbreak layup. She also displayed her ability to handle the ball even amongst multiple defenders along with her willingness to draw contact and get to the free throw line. In her eighth-grade season, Singletary averaged 23.7 points, 8.7 rebounds, 3.6 steals and 3.6 assists per game in 27 games. 

Singletary has ran with Twelve Time throughout the spring months of AAU ball and recently competed during the second live period at Nike’s Session 2 in New Orleans. During her weekend in Louisiana, Singletary averaged 15.8 points, 3.5 rebounds and 2.1 assists. Singletary’s Irmo team is set to move from the 5A ranks back down to 4A beginning with the 2026-27 season. The 2025-26 version of Irmo finished with a 16-11 record and Singletary would play in all 27 of the Yellow Jackets’ contests. She averaged 23.7 points, 8.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 3.6 steals per game. Singletary is playing up in class in 15U. 

Singletary is still flying under the radar as one of the best 2030s in the Southeast region. She continued to impress by averaging more than 17 points per game on the circuit. There were multiple games where she was shooting the three balls at a very high clip and sometimes over fifty percent. When defense would take away her perimeter shot, she did an excellent job of putting the ball on the floor and attacking. She has a silky-smooth pull up jumper where she elevated right over the defender’s head. Lailah also had her share of steals that led to easy transition buckets for her.
