French basketball players abroadThe increase in the numbers of French basketball players abroad warrants a section of its own. It is s common practise for the WNBA to use the term overseas players while referring to foreign players like Sandrine Gruda and Edwige Lawson-Wade when they are playing in America. However we will use the term coming from abroad for players coming from outside France. You will find a number of French players in some of the top clubs in the Czech Republic, Latvia, Italy, Russia, Spain and Turkey. There are also a number of players who are not French but have had such an impact in France that they been adopted by their French clubs. So we will also follow their career from time to time. All the links to stories from these women playing basketball abroad will be found on this page for the coming season.
