In 2014, Eubanks attended Mississippi State University, where she played for the Mississippi State Bulldogs. Impressing her freshman year, Eubanks was named to the SEC All-Freshman team.

In January 2018, Eubanks was drafted by the Washington Spirit in the second round, sixteenth overall.[3] However, due to roster limits, she was waived before the season started with her rights retained by the Spirit.[4] By Week 2 of the season, Eubanks was signed as a Replacement Player for Argentine player, Estefanía Banini.[5] While playing as replacement status, teammate Cali Farquharson was placed on the disable list due to injury, opening a full roster spot.
