About a year later, mother and daughter moved to Georgia, where Maya continued to play basketball. In high school she had the opportunity to play basketball against some of the nation's best players. The competition improved her skills. Maya led her team to 125 victories and three state championships. During this time, she was named the national player of the year twice.
Universities competed to recruit her for their women's basketball programs.
Maya and her mother approached the college decision like they did everything, with careful consideration, Maya chose the University of Connecticut.
In her four years at the University of Connecticut, she led the school to a 150 and 4 record. After graduating in 2011, Maya was the first choice of the professional team the Minnesota Lynx. She rewarded them with the 2011 WNBA title and was named rookie of the year.
No wonder man call Maya one of the best to ever play the game!
