Efficient, two-way freshman guard with playmaking upside
Kya Hurt showed immediate value for Illinois State in her freshman season, averaging 8.1 points and 2.4 assists in 22.5 minutes while earning MVC All-Freshman honors. Her best trait is efficiency and versatility: she can score, handle the ball, and create turnovers defensively, with a career-high 26-point, 6-assist, 4-steal game that hints at real ceiling. She looks like a fit for teams wanting a guard who plays with pace, confidence, and active hands rather than just chasing volume.
