Iyana Martin - Spar Girona
GUARD
Birth Date: January 18, 2006 (20 years old) Height: 5ft 9in / 174 cm
The former EuroLeague Women Rising Star and most recently crowned FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup 2026 Rising Star, Martin is an exceptional talent. Her fearless approach, scoring power and tenacity make for a potent and entertaining mix. She might also use the disappointment of missing out on EuroLeague Women as added fuel.
Kennedy Burke - CIMSA CBK Mersin
GUARD
Birth Date: February 14, 1997 (29 years old) Height: 6ft 1in / 185 cm
Last season's EuroCup Women Finals MVP, Burke is back to inspire Mersin. It was her magic that brought an historic and glorious first title. A star for Türkiye also, her relentlessness and ability to execute when it matters are big factors. She will score, create and rebound from the backcourt and wings, making her a nightmare to defend.
Sarah Cisse - BLMA
FORWARD / CENTER
Birth Date: January 26, 2007 (19 years old) Height: 6ft 3in / 190 cm
One of the most exciting young talents in women's global hoops, Cisse has already shown her high ceiling. From a EuroCup Women monthly MVP honor last season, to putting her name on the map stateside and being crowned MVP at FIBA U20 Women's EuroBasket, her power and poise in the paint will be huge for BLMA once again.
Daniel Raber - Elitzur Ramle
FORWARD
Birth Date: September 5, 1996 (30 years old) Height: 6ft 0in / 183 cm
A colossus in the paint, Raber is capable of eye-popping numbers anytime she takes to the court. A standout leader for Israel, the frontcourt ace is back balling in her home country and will be a marquee player for Ramle. Efficient, a great worker, and underrated for her scoring ability, the forward will be a menace to her opponents.
Rennia Davis - Besiktas BOA
GUARD
Birth Date: February 24, 1999 (27 years old) Height: 6ft 1in / 185 cm
If Besiktas want to make some noise in this year's competition then it could be through the production of Davis. The last time she was in EuroCup Women she averaged 17.0 points and 8.0 rebounds per game. Also able to dish out dimes and be a force on the defensive end, the many upsides of the versatile guard make her a major weapon.
Laura Cornelius - GEAS Basket
GUARD
Birth Date: February 8, 1996 (30 years old) Height: 5ft 9in / 174 cm
The playmaker showed her class in the Qualifiers to inspire the Italians to a Regular Season slot. Cornelius used all of her know-how, skills and composure and that trend will continue. The Netherlands national team star knows what it takes at the top level, has played in a EuroLeague Women Final and will pull the strings for GEAS expertly.
Stephanie Mawuli - MEINS Avenida
SMALL FORWARD
Birth Date: November 25, 1998 (27 years old) Height: 6ft 0in / 182 cm
It's a short hop across from Zaragoza to rivals Avenida for the Japan national team forward. Part of the history-making Zaragoza team last season, Mawuli will bring her energetic and athletic approach for her new team. She can score, will pick up boards and be a presence defensively. She's maybe likely to have a more prominent role too.
Zala Friskovec - Sopron Basket
GUARD
Birth Date: October 10, 1999 (26 years old) Height: 5ft 11in / 180 cm
It would be a major surprise if the Slovenia national team baller is not a big influence as usual for Sopron Basket and does not finish as one of their leading offensive contributors. Friskovec has built an impressive track record in club competitions and for her country with her perimeter play and IQ likely to be so priceless for the Hungarians.
Ivana Dojkic - Umana Reyer Venezia
GUARD
Birth Date: December 24, 1997 (28 years old) Height: 5ft 11in / 180 cm
A high level player, the qualities of the Croatian guard will be on display in EuroCup Women this season as her team tries to pick themselves up from their shock loss in the EuroLeague Women Qualifiers. Dojkic has experience, can create and score at the hoop or from range and relishes taking responsibility in crunch situations for her team.
Sedona Prince - Panathinaikos A.C.
CENTER
Birth Date: May 12, 2000 (26 years old) Height: 6ft 7in / 200 cm
If Prince can produce a rinse and repeat from her epic displays in the 2025-26 campaign then perhaps her team can look forward to a deep run in the competition. A walking double-double last season, she has the skills and imposing physicality to put up some huge numbers in the scoring and rebounding categories once again.
Feyonda Fitzgerald - Enea AZS Politechnika Poznan
GUARD
Birth Date: April 15, 1995 (31 years old) Height: 5ft 7in / 170 cm
The experienced guard packs a devastating scoring punch as she showed last season in the competition when suited up for Panathinaikos A.C. If she gets near that 22.6 points per game production again, it will delight Poznan fans. A clutch player, difference-maker and momentum-shifter, she will have to face lots of defensive attention.
Eliska Joklova - Zabiny Brno
GUARD
Birth Date: October 1, 2001 (24 years old) Height: 6ft 0in / 182 cm
The guard did everything to propel her club into the EuroLeague Women Regular Season, but it's now all focus on EuroCup Women. An incredible presence and do-it-all baller, Joklova produces, organizes and leads Zabiny Brno brilliantly. It mirrors how she top-scored and shone for Czechia at the FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup 2026.
