I really like Klabo’s game. She is currently a fantastic role player on a team that will be favored to win the EDC. Horace is loaded at the guard position. In order for them to reach their potential, they need younger players to step in and accept their role of defending, taking care of the ball, and knocking down open shots. Maya is more than capable of accomplishing those tasks. She is a fantastic defender with good speed and quickness. She fits in perfectly with the Hawks’ press-game and creates a ton of turnovers. She is a steady ball-handler with a smooth shot. I am looking for Maya to take a bigger step with her offensive production next season.

Klabo has a ton of great fundamentals that translate to very steady play. She plays off of two feet and limits her turnovers. Her footwork is impressive for a young player. She is able to get past defenders and create scoring opportunities at the rim. She plays extremely hard and is a very coachable athlete. Her competitive nature is something I really appreciate. She is the type of player who doesn’t care about her stats as long as her team wins. Gaining confidence in her scoring is going to be the next step in Maya’s game. She is more than capable of scoring double figures and has the shooting form, footwork, and athleticism to accomplish this on a regular basis going forward.

Klabo played a ton of meaningful minutes this season for a very talented Horace team. She is one of 6 players who played all 27 games for the Hawks. She was very efficient this season from the field and didn’t make many mistakes on the court. She shot the ball 50% overall and 44% from three. I anticipate her fighting for a starting position next season and helping Horace once again get back to the state tournament. She is a hardworking athlete who puts time into her game and has a desire to improve. She is just scratching the surface of how effective she will be as a high school player. She is a certainly a college prospect.

Horace High School has a terrific 2-sport athlete in Maya Klabo Maya Klabo 5'8" | CG Horace | 2029 State ND , who is also a volleyball standout. She is another stellar guard in a long line of Hawk athletes in recent years. She is going to have great role models to look up to and Maya has the attitude to absorb all the leadership lessons available. She is a coachable kid who plays the game the right way. I like her patience with the ball on offense and her ability to play off of the ball. Maya is going to be an excellent high school basketball player.

Maya is going to be a really good high school player.  She has a very athletic frame and strong legs.  She has high basketball IQ, keeping space in the half court and moving naturally on the floor.  She excels  in her passing.  She throws passes on time and on target in traffic.  She is very good at throwing to posts’ strong hand to create easy scoring opportunities.
