He Lointek Gernika Bizkaia ha booked to Sarah Wood for the season 2023-24, as reported this Thursday by the Biscayan club.

Madera, in the 2022-23 season, averaged 5.9 points and 3.6 rebounds per game in the Italian League, and 5.3 points and 2.4 rebounds in the Eurocup. In statements made to the Lointek Gernika website, has highlighted that, when he played in Maloste, in the European competition, the atmosphere seemed “spectacular”. “The Endesa League”, he added, “is one of the best competitions, and Lointek Gernika wants to fight for everything, both in the League and in the Eurocup”.
For his part, the coach of Lointek Gernika, Mario López, has stressed that Madera “is an inside player”, since “her natural position is the position of four”. López has valued the international experience of the Italian, “a fundamental piece in lower categories with her selection.” Her most notable characteristic, she continued, “is her threat from the outside shot, especially from the three-point shot, which can open up the field for us; she is an intelligent player, who can also post when she has an advantage. She is a winner, with character; without having great physical qualities, she gives a lot of desire to everything she does on the track. With very different characteristics from the two centers signed to date, I think she can complement herself well with them, and balance our inside game”, The technician has finished.
