Just wanted to let you all know that Kayte is playing this off-season in Turkey and is currently playing with her team in a couple of exhibition tournaments in Hungary to prepare for the upcoming season. The team is undefeated so far in exhibition play.
Kayte is joined on the team with two other Americans - LaToya Turner, who was in Phoenix's training camp this past season, and Stacey Thomas, who played for the Mercury in the past and was traded to Minnesota from Detroit in the Katie Smith trade this year.
I'll try to send updates as the year progresses, but for now, she says "hello from Hungary". |

This FIBA site might be helpful for information. They are rather slow in updating stuff, but the information should be there eventually.
http://www.fibaeurope.com/default.asp?cid=%7BA440F8BD-44CB-4159-9FC6-547E93455FE2%7D&compID=%7BB751A3B2-1D28-42B5-8BDE-9D01F3BD1F23%7D
According to this site, Anna's team is in the same division as Dee's. They will play each other.
The rosters are not up to date but the team DT is supposed to be on is the same as Sue Bird and Kamila.
Information about Maria's overseas season should be here too. Bobo's team is here too. You might even get information on the other players as well. |

| No problem. I love the extra stories too. And "administrative assistant" is not secretery as some have implied on other boards. It's 4th assistant, whatever is needed. she's doing a lot of work with film and stuff like that. |
