Summary

UConn just added a French firecracker to their roster—Marine Dursus, a 5’9” scoring guard who averaged 13+ points in a recent tournament and dropped 17 in a championship game. She wasn’t planning on coming to the States, but coach Geno Auriemma convinced her to join, and she’s already soaking up the culture, teaching teammates French and baking tiramisu. Choosing jersey No. 5—Paige Bueckers’ old number—she’s ready to own the spotlight. Though she’s adjusting to America’s talk-heavy basketball style, her laid-back confidence and international experience make her a perfect fit. She’s also planning to major in sports management, blending her passion for the game with her future goals. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
