Basketball has always been about family for Mila Reynolds.

In her estimation, it still is.

Yes, the 6-foot-3 redshirt senior is still processing a bit of separation adjustment in her first few weeks with the University of New Mexico women's basketball team. After all, she played alongside two sisters and with her father as an assistant coach last season at UT Arlington.

Things are dramatically different this summer as Reynolds joins a UNM program with all new teammates and a first-year coaching staff. How does the South Bend, Indiana native see her role?

How about as big sister?

Being the tallest player on the Lobos roster, she said, has little to do with her qualifications. Being the oldest of seven siblings, however, is a key credential.

"Despite my height, I think my role is to be a leader on and off the court," Reynolds said. "I have a lot of experience coming from different programs and, with this being my fifth year, I'm definitely the oldest on the team. I need to set an example for the younger kids and just be a good leader."

Background check

Different programs? Check.

Coming out of high school as a top-100 national recruit, Reynolds spent her freshman season at Maryland and the next two at Purdue before transferring to UTA for last season's family reunion. She took an injury redshirt season at Purdue in 2024-25 and has one year of eligibility remaining.

Like her father and one of her sisters, Reynolds opted to move on from UTA after last season. New UNM coach Amy Eagan and her staff saw Reynolds' name in the NCAA transfer portal and started looking at her as a possible fit for their system. Reynolds came off the bench at Maryland and Purdue but was a regular contributor at UTA, where she averaged 6.7 points, 1.9 rebounds and 1.1 assists last season.

"Mila's had a lot of experience and her IQ is so good," Eagan said. "When you talk about seeing the overall big picture, she does a great job helping out. Some of our kids right now are really narrowed in, and Mila will say, 'Hey, we've got to get a body on people for block-outs in that situation.' She's been great for us."

On the court, Reynolds is confident she can adjust quickly to the Princeton-based offense favored by Eagan and assistant coach Jordan Mellott. She's a mobile post who can score from 3-point range or coming off screens in addition to having some back-to-the-basket moves.

"Being a coach's kid, I have the ability to understand different offenses," Reynolds said. "I think with the skill level I've been provided, I can morph and fit into different systems. Whatever Coach Eagan wants me to do, I'm gonna do it."

Family first

Reynolds also has an urge to empty the competitive tank in her final collegiate season. After being limited by injuries and deep power-conference rosters, Reynolds hopes to shine in cherry and silver.

"I want to show everything this year," she said, "and I appreciate the belief Coach Eagan and the rest of the coaches have in me."

Reynolds knows things will be different in 2026-27. She's a long way from her home state of Indiana and she's the only Reynolds on UNM's roster or coaching staff. Her dad, Steve, is now coaching a Phoenix prep school squad that includes Reynolds' two youngest sisters with her mom, Marcy, as an assistant coach.

That means Mila Reynolds is on her own 鈥� but she may have found an ideal surrogate family.

"I was really looking for a place I could call home," she said of her decision to come to UNM. "A second family is what I was looking for and I felt like Coach Eagan and the staff put it out there that this is a safe space and a family-oriented program. That's kind of what drew me in."

And what does the Lobos' big sister think of her new batch of siblings?

"I love this team," she said with wide grin. "Of all the programs I've been in, this team is the tightest, has the best chemistry 鈥� especially considering the short time we've been together. All the girls are good and you can tell they recruited good character players. I really think this year is going to be a lot of fun."

NOTES: UNM concluded its summer practice schedule this week and will start fall workouts on Aug. 17. The Lobos were largely healthy through the summer with only senior transfer Gracy Wernli (ACL recovery) missing extended time. Wernli is doing individual drills and is expected to be fully cleared for fall workouts, Eagan said.

Eagan and her staff will hit the recruiting trail this weekend as they seek to fill the roster for 2027-28. UNM has received verbal commitments from two high-scoring prep players. Jada Brown (5-11 guard) averaged 20.3 points and 8.3 rebounds at Illinois' Quincy High School last season. Peyton Ward (6-2 forward) averaged 20.7 points and 8.3 rebounds at Missouri's Marshall High School. Both announced their commitments via social media.

Eagan is hoping to add two more freshmen, preferably a center and a guard.
