The best right back in the world right now. Others have the accolades, but no one matches Housheer’s ceiling – pure dynamite in attack and lethal under pressure.

A two-way powerhouse. Skogrand’s blend of defensive strength and offensive craft makes her unique. When Mørk’s out, she steps up – and never misses a beat.

Maybe not the Mørk of old – but still Mørk. In a decisive moment, every coach in the world still wants her on the court. That says it all.
