Hodaya Kabada brings pro-tested size, shooting touch, and international polish to UNLV
Kabada, a 5-foot-10 guard from Israel, arrives at UNLV with real pro and national-team experience, highlighted by being named the 2024 Israeli League Young Breakout player and averaging 9.6 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.2 steals, and 1.1 blocks for Hapoel Lev Jerusalem in 2024. UNLV describes her as a scoring guard with great size and an elite ability to shoot the ball, which makes her a strong fit for teams needing perimeter scoring and mature shot-making. In the 2025-26 season, she has played a limited role so far, but the upside is obvious: a polished, experienced guard who already knows how to compete against adults.
