Thread for Tracking Overseas Play

[awhom111]

Gabby had a good game, but they lost the final to the league's strongest team:
Spanish Cup February 28th-March 3rd - Women's Basketball 24.7

Fenerbahce kept Bria for the final, but switched Kiah back for Kia Vaughn as they won the cup.
Turkish Cup February 27th-March 2nd - Women's Basketball 24.7

Assuming that Kiah does not get naturalized, it will be interesting to see which four foreigners they play in the playoffs. Their power forward from Belarus, Anastasiya Verameyenka is probably a lock since she has been a key player for them for so many seasons. Kelsey Plum and Kia Vaughn have the incumbent advantage and Giorgia Sottana also played for them last season even though she has had a smaller role for them recently. Bria has been pretty strong for them all season. Cecilia Zandalasini offers them the most versatility. In the finals, they would likely face a foreigner group of Chelsea Gray, Alina Iagupova, Astou Ndour, and Kelsey Bone.

KML was involved in a cup competition this weekend as they advanced to the final in May:

You can find Gabby's EuroCup stats here as her team looks to be in good position to advance to the next round:

KML's stats are here, but they may be done after the next game:
Kaleena LEWIS at the EuroCup Women 2018-19 - FIBA.basketball

All the EuroLeague series ended in sweeps:
EuroLeague Quarterfinals Game 2 March 8th - Women's Basketball 24.7

Fenerbahce losing was not completely surprising, but they way in which they were completely uncompetitive was not expected. Usually they keep all of the foreigners through domestic league play, but with the number of extra players that they are carrying will make team chemistry interesting for the rest of the season, especially with the championship probably being necessary for everyone to keep their jobs.

Tina's season is over as she did everything she could, but carrying the whole team on her back just was not possible:
Chinese League Semifinals Game 3 March 4th - Women's Basketball 24.7

Beijing had been unstoppable with Sylvia Fowles, but their key Chinese players Shao Ting and Gao Song are aging and not as effective as they used to be. Other teams are bringing through young talent now and it is paying off for them.

Saniya helped her team win the Adriatic league:
FIBA - game - WABA

Because of her teammates, she is not expected to score too much, but a 9 assist, 0 turnover effort in the final is exactly what they want from her.
