SCOUTING REPORT
Marie was selected in the 1st round of the 2018 WNBA draft after averaging 17.5 points (65% FG!!!), 9.2 rebounds and 2.8 blocks per game for Oregon State.
She is a dominant force on both ends of the floor. The German native earned All-American honors and was voted the Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year in her senior year at Oregon. Harder to quantify but undeniable nonetheless, teammates and coaches said she developed into a true leader and team's tone-setter.
Offensively, the 6'5 post has a very versatile skill set: She can play with her back to the basket, has a nice fade-away, a very consistent mid-range jumper and can attack the rim off the dribble.
After her first WNBA season with the Phoenix Mercury, Marie signed with EuroCup Team Reyer Venezia for the 2018-2019 season. In her first season with the team, Marie averaged 12 points and 7 rebounds, while shooting 54%.
She finished up her second season in the WNBA, playing for the Atlanta Dream, averaging 3.3 pts and 3.0 rebs per game. In the 2019-2020 season, Marie played in Poland for league champion Arka Gdynia. She averaged 10 pts and 7 rebs, while shooting an amazing 57% from the field.
Marie played for the LA Sparks during the 2020 WNBA season and is currently playing for Valencia in Spain.
During the EuroBasket 2021 qualifiers in November 2020, Marie led Germany to two big wins against Latvia and Macedonia and averaged 14 points and 14 rebounds per game.
