Endesa Women’s League
The forward arrives from TTT Riga, has averaged 7 points per game in this past Euroleague and will play the Under-20 World Cup in July
The IDK Euskotren announced this Thursday the hiring of the Latvian Vanesa Jasa (Riga, 2003), a forward who will turn nineteen on July 9 and who will be the youngest in the San Sebastian squad for the 2021/22 season. Despite her youth, she is already an international with the senior team and has experience in the Euroleague.
Jasa, 1.78 meters tall, has averaged seven points and 3.4 rebounds in 21 minutes this past season in the top continental competition, with percentages of 43% in the triple (22 of 51 in 16 games). His best game was against the Hungarian Atomeromu, against whom he scored 14 points with three of three from the perimeter.
In addition, in the domestic league it has also had a leading role. Despite not being a very cutting-edge competition, he has averaged nine points, 2.4 rebounds and 2.1 assists in 19 minutes of play, with 40% shooting from three-pointers and 52% shooting two-pointers. Surprisingly, his worst shooting position is from 4.60 meters, where he has had an accuracy of 61.3%.
The Latvian is summoned to play the Under-20 World Cup that will be held from July 8 to 16 in Sopron, Hungary, where she could face Spain in the second phase, a selection in which the IDK Euskotren player and future partner María España is the delegate.
In this way, Azu Muguruza will have eleven players next season, unlike the beginning of last season, when she started training with ten until the arrival of Lena Niang. The IDK Euskotren returns to its line after the forced reconstruction that it had to undertake a year ago, and has gone from retaining two players (Esnal and Coulibaly) to renewing six this spring, a figure that is similar to the markets of the last lustrum.
