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.
Marie played for the LA Sparks during the 2020 WNBA season and is currently playing for Valencia in Spain, averaging 10 points and 5 rebounds, while shooting 58% from the field.
During the EuroBasket 2023 qualifiers in November 2021, Marie averaged 13 points and 6.5 rebounds per game for Germany.
