National player Nyara Sabally led the Czech basketball club ZVVZ USK Prague to the EuroLeague Final Four in her first season. The team led by the top scorer from Berlin beat Beretta Famila Schio from Italy 74:54 (34:25) in the decisive third quarterfinal game and won the series 2:1.
The 24-year-old is following in the footsteps of her older sister. Satou Sabally (25) played twice in the final tournament with Fenerbahce Istanbul. In 2021 she came third in the Turkish club’s jersey and won the title in 2023.
The sisters, who got their ticket to the Olympics with the German national team in February, are also under contract in the WNBA – but will play for other clubs during the break in the US professional league. Satou (Dallas Wings) played for Shandong Shangao BC/China until the end. Nyara (New York Liberty) signed in Prague last year.
The EuroLeague Final Four will take place April 12-14. Nyara Sabally had a strong 19 points and seven rebounds in just over 20 minutes in the home win in the third quarterfinal against Schio.
