Aerial Leann Powers, the newly transferred American athlete of Melikgazi Kayseri Basketball, which competes in the Women’s Basketball Super League, has passed her health check.
Powers, who transferred to the Kayseri team at the beginning of the season, went to Kayseri yesterday. After examinations in cardiology and internal medicine, the American athlete underwent an ECG and stress tests.
General Manager Fatih Solak said, “First of all, Turkish basketball and Melikgazi Kayseri got an important and valuable basketball player. I want to express my gratitude to our Melikgazi Mayor Mustafa Palancıoğlu, our Club President Yakup Yüksel and our Vice President Ahmet Bozbey to bring this name to Turkish basketball. Like his last name, Melikgazi came to strengthen the team’s enthusiasm at the highest level. It was delayed because of the WNBA play-offs. From now on, he will fight for our Kayseri. I also ask our fans not to leave us alone in the Fenerbahçe game they, we have something missing,” he said.
