Maria Anais Rodriguez brings two-way grit and efficient scoring to Arkansas
In the 2025-26 season, Maria Anais Rodriguez averaged 5.4 points and 3.0 rebounds in 29 games for Arkansas, shooting 40.2% from the field while adding 28 steals, 19 assists, and 10 blocks — a tidy little stat soup for a 6-foot-1 forward who impacts both ends[1][6]. She also arrived with a strong international résumé, including averaging 8.3 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 1.9 assists for Spain at the 2024 FIBA U18 Women’s EuroBasket, which hints at versatility, poise, and a high basketball IQ beyond the box score[8].
