The WNBA draft was a crucial night for the New York Liberty as they selected Adja Kane, a French center, with the last pick overall. At 6'3", Kane is a skilled player currently averaging 4.9 points and 1.2 blocks per game in France. The Liberty's general manager, Jonathan Kolb, expressed pride in the organization's commitment to harnessing global talent and plans to allow Kane to develop overseas while maintaining support. This reflects the Liberty's strategy to blend localized and international players as they prepare for the upcoming season.
As an organization, we pride ourselves on embracing the global nature of the game and are proactive in assembling a deep group of international talent.
Kane, a talented young player from a strong program in France, will continue to develop overseas for the next few years with our support from afar.
