Hi Becky,
I hope you are enjoying Spain!
You joined Ros in October and were playing almost immediatley after your arrival. How difficult is it to join a team when the season is already underway? And how difficult is it for you to make the transition from the WNBA style of play to the European style?
Hope you have an AWESOME Christmas!

Merry Christmas to you and your family Kristina!! Joining a team mid way through a season does pose some different challenges. For me though, I try to just focus on whatever my team needs me to do. Its key to try and figure out your role on the team as soon as possible, and sometimes this can be difficult once rotations, trust, and camaraderie has been established. But for me here in Ros, I already know most of the girls, so they’ve made it a very smooth transition for me, and have made me feel very welcome!! Great teammates always makes the transition smooth, and shows alot of maturity and professionalism. As far as the style goes over here in Europe it is different from American style, but the transition becomes easier and easier with time. Most of us have been overseas before and know what to expect once we get here.
