The Oregon Ducks received a big signature from Anneli Maley on Wednesday as Kelly Graves continues to show that Oregon will play with International Talent.

Kelly Graves is slowly building the Oregon Women’s Basketball team into a group of elite talent. He started the process with two key Freshman in 2016-17 in Sabrina Ionescu and Ruthy Hebard. Ionescu. The talent level in Eugene continues to bring in top talent, but there not Nationally, but Internationally.

It has been a process for Graves and his coaching staff, but something that began three seasons ago is starting to bear fruit. Australian Guard Anneli Maley joined the Oregon Ducks. With the departing talent along with one of the top International Recruits, the goal for Oregon Women’s Basketball may be even higher next season.

Maley is among three players at the International Level to join Oregon in the Fall along with Satou Sabally and Aina Ayuso. The Oregon Ducks made it all the way to the Elite 8 last season falling to a then-undefeated Connecticut team in the chance to get to the Final Four.
