MUNICH (EuroCup Women) – We take a look at the players to watch in EuroCup Women Group A as Olympiacos, TTT Riga, Besiktas JK and Gorzow prepare to do battle when the Regular Season gets underway.
Miah Spencer - Gorzow
...
The North Carolina graduate turned some heads in the NCAA and now she is about to embark on that all-important first pro-season. Scoring, creating and hitting clutch shots, Spencer can be a factor in her rookie campaign. Oh, and she calls herself LeBron's biggest fan!
Shaylani Peddy - TTT Riga
Having posted some great displays during the past three years in the competition with German powerhouse TSV 1880 Wasserburg, Peddy takes her skills to the Latvian capital. She will offer an all-action style that is fun to watch and she is a proven floor general in this competition.
Annamaria Prezelj - Gorzow
The aspiring Slovenia star is playing outside of her homeland for the first time and it will be a big test. But with character and mental strength in abundance - as well as some excellent playmaking skills and potential, she is a star in the making and now has a EuroBasket Women tournament behind her as well.
Gunta Basko-Melnbarde - TTT Riga
One of the great veteran players, Basko-Melnbarde is still going strong and hitting new milestones and heights with every turn. Having propelled Latvia to the FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup for the first time, her attention will be back on TTT Riga and using her quality and leadership to propel them deep in EuroCup Women.
Bernice Mosby - Besiktas JK
The athleticism, scoring and rebounding powers of Mosby will be vital for Besiktas, with the forward also offering a range of experiences from around the world - including Korea. You can never sleep on her as she can rack up some big numbers!
Evanthia Maltsi - Olympiacos
Basketball........#1 love ❤️🏀💪 New season ! New goals ! One team OLYMPIAKOS! To all athletes all over the world I wish you a healthy season and good luck ! 💪✌️A post shared by Evina Maltsi (@evinaki9) on
The legendary Greek star is not hanging up her playing shoes just yet and will once again lead the charge of Olympiacos as they look to make up for last season's failure to make it past the Group phase. Maltsi had a stunning renaissance with Greece at EuroBasket Women 2017 and is loving her basketball right now.
Mirna Mazic - Olympiacos
There is no doubt that Mazic could lay claim to being one of the most underrated post players in European basketball. The Croatian is a fine signing for Olympiacos as she has been a real force off the bench with Agu Spor in their regular push for honors. Now she could have an even more prominent role at her new club.
Sevgi Uzun - Besiktas JK
It was a bitter-sweet summer for Uzun who suffered a heartbreaking relegation with Turkey at the FIBA U20 Women's European Championship. But, she posted a number of sensational displays which hint that she might be about to record a breakout season with Besiktas. She certainly has the temperament and shooting ability to put points on the board.
