Jakiylah Esco brings veteran size, rebounding punch, and efficient interior play for Grambling State
In the 2024-25 season at Jackson State, Jakiylah Esco averaged 1.8 points and 2.0 rebounds in 8.0 minutes across 26 games, then carried that veteran interior presence into Grambling State’s 2025-26 rotation. The 6'1" senior is valuable because she rebounds, finishes efficiently, and can steady the paint without needing touches to impact winning; she posted a double-double with 11 points and 10 rebounds in a January 2026 win, and Grambling also highlighted an 8-point, 7-rebound Senior Night effort later that season. If your team needs a physical, low-maintenance frontcourt piece with hustle and experience, she fits the brief nicely.
