Kizer made a big impact when she was playing for fierce city rivals Galatasaray, averaging 14 points and 7 rebounds during the 2015-16 season.

She then went on to post some big numbers with Olympiacos last season and most recently, has stepped out in China for Shandong, in addition to playing in the WNBA for the likes of the Indiana Fever and the Connecticut Sun.

Kizer joins fellow new arrival Giorgia Sottana who signed last week.
