Jaidah Black brings tough, high-effort forward play to Murray State
Jaidah Black is a 6-foot junior forward for Murray State who has steadily carved out a role by doing the gritty stuff: rebounding, defending, and playing with reliable energy. In the 2022-23 season, she appeared in 29 games with nine starts and averaged 2.4 points and 3.3 rebounds; Murray State also recognized her with the 2023 MVC State Farm Good Neighbor Award for leadership and community impact. She looks like the kind of teammate coaches trust—steady, selfless, and physical, with a near-double-double high school pedigree that hints at untapped upside.
