Finnish basketball history was made on Thursday night, when 19-year-old Awak Kuier was selected by the Dallas Wings in the first round of the WNBA draft. She s now set to be the first Finnish player to play in the premier women s professional league, and the first to be drafted in the first round. Taru Tuukkonen had been drafted in the fourth round of the 2001 draft, but never played or signed a contract in the league. Kuier is also the first foreign player to be in the top five picks in the last decade. It s a really good feeling, Kuier told Yle by video call after the draft. This has been my dream for a long time, I can t quite believe it. But when my parents and relatives called, it started to sink in that I d been picked. It s a really great thing and I m so happy about it.
