In an interview with Slam Magazine last December, Aaliyah Crump opened up about life, basketball and her game discipline. She recounted her experience meeting Women's Basketball Hall of Famer Maya Moore.

“I had one experience where I got to run to half court and got a ball from Maya Moore during the championship games," Crump said. "That really had a huge impact on me: the Lynx, Maya Moore and Lindsay Whalen.”

Moreover, she also spoke about her game ethics and being a team player:

“Doing what I have to do to help my team win is the biggest thing for me,” Crump said. “Growing into that part of my game, being physical and bodying up, whether that’s offensively or defensively. I feel like basketball has taken me so far in life and left me with so many opportunities, but I know it can take me even farther."

In her high school career at the Montverde Academy, Crump has played 26 games, averaging 11.2 points, 3.7 assists, 4.3 rebounds, 1.7 steals and 1.0 blocks per MaxPreps.

Moreover, she also clinched gold at the 2023 FIBA Americas U16 Championship.

She is also the first high school and female athlete to sign a deal with the Klutch Athletics and called it an "unbelievable honor."
