Fagbenle is an WNBA champion with Minnesota Lynx and also had success in Poland with regular season and playoffs glory with CCC Polkowice – also picking up an MVP award.
There could be more silverware ahead for the British duo as Avenida lead the way at the top of the league standings in Spain, whilst also competing in the quarter-finals of EuroCup Women.
