Jerzy Robinson

Heading into her sophomore year at Sierra Canyon, Jerzy Robinson was regarded as the best women’s basketball recruit regardless of classification. She was all-state selection and Arizona Player of the Year led Team USA to a gold medal at the 2023 FIBA Americas U16 Championship. At just 14 years old, she became the youngest player to ever win MVP at the tournament. Robinson played her freshman year of high school basketball at Phoenix Desert Vista. Represented by the Klutch Group, Robinson signed an NIL partnership with Nike in January 2024. “I’m living the dream, honestly,” Robinson told the LA Daily News. “To be able to be in LA, be in Hollywood, have these great teammates and great resources as coaches and things around us, it’s honestly a dream come true.” Canyon coach Alicia Komaki typically assigns Robinson to guard the opposing team’s best player, something she embraces. “Usually, it’s about scoring the most points or getting the most rebounds or whatever is going to hit the stat chart,” Komaki said. “I think that’s impressive, that she not only is great at defense, but she buys into it and she wants to do it and takes a lot of pride in her defense.”
