Lisa Fortier on Gunaydin: We were immediately drawn to Vera because of her ability to shoot the ball from distance and her commitment to being one of the hardest workers everywhere she's been. She's been pushed to expand her game and play different positions, and has thrived in each situation. She is excited to be a Zag and we are excited to coach her!
