Awak Sabit Bior Kuier (born 19 August 2001)[1][2] is a Finnish professional basketball player who competes for Reyer Venezia in the Italian Lega Basket Femminile and in the EuroLeague Women, and for the Dallas Wings of the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA).
[7] Growing up in the city of Kotka, Kuier was discovered for basketball by a neighbour at age 10, when she stood already 180 cm tall.
[14] In addition to her speed and resilience, Kuier's features also include an exceptionally large wingspan of about seven feet.
[15] On June 10, 2022, in a game against the Seattle Storm, Kuier became the 8th woman in WNBA history to dunk a basketball.
[3] This is due to overlapping seasons between Italy and the United States, and the strict change in WNBA rules concerning absences related to playing in Europe.
[22] On 10 October 2024, Kuier made her debut in the EuroLeague for Venezia, recording 14 points, six rebounds, three assists and two blocks in a 80–59 win over Hungarian UNI Győr.
[27] Today, her family has settled in the coastal town of Uusikaupunki and she holds dual Finnish and Egyptian citizenship.
