US-Meisterin Leonie Fiebich in interview with WNBA-Rookie-Gehalt

For Leonie Fiebich, her first season in the American Basketball League WNBA has been a great opportunity. Those 24 years of old German National Sports have had great results, with the Stars-specked Team New York Liberty having won their first Master’s title. Because the WNBA-Gründungsmits is so small, no Fiebich ended up on the Nationalmannschaftskollegin Nyara Sabally. Fiebich, born in Landsberg, never lived in New York. They earn an amount of $ 74,000 per year (and therefore 68,400 euros), more money for Rookies in the WNBA cousin.

Ms. Fiebich, have you done everything right with the Umzug in the US?

Der Wechsel hat sich tatsächlich wie the absolutely oriented Entscheidung angefühlt. Especially after the title win.

Would you like to concentrate on your stay in New York and the Mannschaft?

When you play the Olympic Games, everything is unclear – from the League to the Stadt to his team. I have to learn. Nach Paris has fühlt my German wohler. I could stand up continuously. A gleichzeitig is dat de Vertrauen meiner Mitspielerinnen und Coaches gewachsen. That is what I learned in the shared moments of self-consciousness. After the first Play-off game against Atlanta, I felt like I was ready to come. That was danach noch mal ein else Level.

Who’s with the city’s sour divorces?

New York is a fact. The Energy, the Vielfalt and the Leidenschaft of the Fans are unparalleled. The hall, the training options and the professionalism of the franchise: everything at a high level.

When the Minnesota Lynx give Liberty star forwards Sabrina Ionescu and Breanna Stewart a chance to play, there will likely be a lot of production and rushing gifts from the game. Are you not going to play games, but do you also want to enjoy Schützin with the ball?

Minnesota’s Finale series features more feature films for my laufen. Old wars improvise and will often now respond to the players’ game. Minnesota’s defensive war is extremely intense and fought out, we can both see the best of the game. I’ll be happy to help you with everything. And I have consistently quickly obtained 10 Würfe pro Spiel-.

The League has experienced a phenomenon with enormous publicity pointing to it. Was there a lifetime in the last year in the USA?

The timing couldn’t be more different. I am lucky with a mistreatment from all: Natürlich weitere Titel, aber auf a Weiterentwicklung als Spielerin. Darüber hinaus: auf bessere Arbeits- und Verdienstmöglichkeiten. The WNBA is an unglazed platform, no longer sporting, but in the background of the world, the women in professional sports. It’s cool, the way you play and see, how the basketball basketball is more noticeable is that.

German work is being improved with a new product. Of course, it’s an NBA player’s story. If another product is a different product, you can write in a more honest representation. Being a Rookie in the WNBA earns a man active work. It’s one of the many things in play in Europe, one of the cattle you encounter. If you plan to leave the man, one of our problems will come to an end.

Werden Sie deshalb wie manche other WNBA-Spielerinnen ebenfalls diese Doppelbelastung in Kauf nehmen?

In der Wintersaison it was played in Europe. The warnings will lead to a break in the Nationalmannschaftsfensters in November. There is no urgent need for that Auszeit. From January it will take even longer. If one of the consequences is an extremely mental, strenuous effort and discourse, he was very passive. Man braucht Popes and Erholung, um fit zu bliben.

Stichwort Nationalmannschaft: Who has the greatest potential for the greater Turniere?

It’s huge, except with Blick on Turniere’s promotions with the EM. And on the WM, the country’s own statistics are found. If it is good, that falls – or even childishly – in the halls, one of the things you can do and your basketball has begun. Soul is a medal and one of the best ways to present.

If you consider, had the German publikum started in the next Zukunft era? Erfolge der Nationalmannschaft or Erfolge who der von Ihnen und Nyara Sabally in der WNBA, die gerade hoch im Kurs steht?

The WNBA was a brand and media market that could advance its interests and the national manschaft. Die Leistungen in America will play at a higher level. If the Nationalmannschaft does not have great success, the reign of Frauenbasketball in Germany will now last even longer.
