The naturalised center was brought into the mix to boost the chances of Turkey competing for a podium finish on a regular basis and at age 25, she is destined to fulfil that role for years to come as she slowly but surely becomes the main frontcourt focus. During her first year, she eased her way into the team by helping to book a spot at the Olympics and then went to London and gave an equally solid and impressive display with 10.8 points and 5.7 rebounds-per-game. She is now a EuroLeague Women champion after taking a winners' medal in her first year with UMMC Ekaterinburg, competing for precious court time on the most stacked roster in Europe. She is powerful, efficient, gets the job done well under the basket and thrives on doing the gritty work for any team.
