Aniya Hubbard brings scoring punch and defensive edge to UAB
Aniya Hubbard is a 5-8 guard whose game pops because she can score in bunches and disrupt possessions on defense; at Florida Atlantic, she averaged 19.4 points per game in the 2023-24 season and had a 28-point career high with five 20-point games by early February 2024[9][5]. Coaches have described her as an “athletic wing with a scorer’s mentality” who can be a “disrupter on the defensive end,” which is the kind of combo that translates well for a team needing toughness, pressure, and shot creation[3]. She also has a hometown connection to the UAB area, which adds a nice fit-and-fire factor if you want a guard who plays with edge and confidence[1].
