Annika Lai brings efficient frontcourt minutes and timely poise for Montana State
In the 2024-25 season, Annika Lai played in 30 of Montana State’s 31 games and averaged 3.4 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 12.8 minutes per game while shooting 40% from the field and 69% at the line. Her calling card is low-drama reliability: a 6-foot-1 forward who competes hard, rebounds in traffic, and can pop for efficient scoring when asked, as shown by her 12-point, six-rebound game at Portland State. She also earned Big Sky academic recognition, which fits the picture of a steady, coachable rotation piece.
