Although she only suited up in a Miami uniform for one season, graduate student Maeva Djaldi-Tabdi made an immediate and everlasting impact on the Hurricanes program. The Paris, France, native brought positivity and an easy-going manner to every practice, but was an extreme competitor on the court. Djaldi-Tabdi was a reliable basketball player and a loving teammate.

BY THE NUMBERS

A SUPER FUN WIN STREAK

“My best memory as a Miami Hurricane happened just recently when we won four straight games in eight days. It was such an awesome experience to be part of sweeping Georgia Tech and Florida State.”

“It’s been a short time with Maeva, but I have been soaking every single second up. She is a wonderful human being and an incredibly smart basketball player. She will be successful in anything she wants to do. She is so well-liked. She is such an impressive, strong warrior of a woman with the kindest, sweetest heart. She’s been very impactful in her very short time her and has been impactful on my coaching career. She’s a very reliable, warm human being.”

WHAT’S NEXT

Upon graduation, Maeva is still determining what her next steps are, but she will most likely return to France and see where basketball and life takes her!
