Yuya's North American MLI scores were not released because the other Amarna mummies did not have this link further SNP testing is needed to etermine it's significance
Adding the unlisted North American MLI my rough estimate based on the map graphic:
Southern African__________34.48
African Great Lakes_______35.53
North Amerindian_________13.12
Athabaskan______________13.12 (North America)
Tropical West African______8.91

Yuyas name and proportions are abnormal to native AE so if his matches are a little different it dont suprise me.

The link between North American Native Americans is probably via R1-M173. This is not a surprise because Africans spread R1-M173 among native Americans, See:
I don't doubt that in the future dna tribal analysis may bring to light the African genes in some of the very dark-skinned native tribes. Some of them after all are very black in color. The same color as Africans.
Two Pawnee men below.
Look they had the same hairstyles too.
Some of this dna tribes stuff is going to get them in trouble one day.
In addition to intermarriage among Native American (NA) and Sub-Saharan African (SSA) populations in the Northeastern and Southern USA, there was considerable intermarriage among NA and SSA in the Midwest. In Minnesota, for example, in 1819 at the mouth of the St. Louis River, there were SSA living in Ojibwa villages.
This is interesting because those NA groups with the highest frequencies of the R1 y-chromosome include the Ojibwe (79%).
Mating between NA and SSA may explain the presence of R1-M173 among the Ojibwa.
