Temi Fagbenle re-signs with Mersin for second season
Temi Fagbenle will stay in Turkey for another season after re-signing with Mersin, the club announced.
The GB star suffered an injury during the playoffs having helped the club to a fourth placed finish in EuroCup Women.
Fagbenle averaged 13.4 points and 6.5 rebounds per game in the competition having reached the final four for the second year running after finishing as runners-up with Reyer Venezia in 2021.
The 29-year-old also added to an illustrious list of titles in her pro career after helping Mersin win the Turkish Cup as Finals MVP.
Still winning.

Do you like our work?
We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.
We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.
We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.
If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.
We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
