Radhika Garapaty is a high-upside Yale guard whose game is being shaped by resilience
Garapaty enters the 2026-27 season as a 5-foot-9 sophomore guard for Yale, but her development arc is the story: she was sidelined by injury in 2025-26 and has been working back after a second ACL tear. Yale’s own bio says she flashed in the team’s 2025 Spain/France trip, scoring 9 points against El Pacto in Barcelona and 6 in the next game, while her high school résumé showed a proven scorer and captain with a 19.9 ppg run in CCS play. Why care? She brings toughness, guard skills, and real upside if the knees cooperate.
