About Malaki
Expert Analysis
John Millyard | Prep Hoops Scout
Malaki is arguably the top overall 2026 prospect in Southern Arizona. He has dominated the 6A South since his sophomore season where he won his first 6A South Player of the year award. He is looking to bring home what would be his third consecutive Region Player of the Year award. This year he is averaging 14.6 points, 2.4 assists, 6.1 rebounds, 2.1 steals and 1.5 blocks per game. Hes a high impact player and has developed into one of the more electric players to watch in his time under Coach Langford. His great awareness a long with his skill and athleticism make him one of the top players and my favorite pick for the POY award in the 6A South.
