Jakia Brown-Turner brings veteran shot-making and two-way polish to Maryland
In the 2023-24 season at Maryland, Jakia Brown-Turner was a reliable do-everything wing who started all 32 games and averaged 13.5 points, 6.4 rebounds, 1.8 assists, and 0.9 steals while shooting 44.1% from the field[1][8]. Her best traits are composure, experience, and scoring versatility—she can create off the dribble, space the floor, and rebound like a forward, which made her an All-Big Ten Second Team pick[4][10]. She also brought hometown leadership and instant-impact maturity after transferring back close to Maryland, making her a strong fit for teams needing a steady, battle-tested veteran who can quietly run the show when it matters most[3][9].
