Sam Ashby was on international duty this week, suiting up for Great Britain for their EuroBasket qualification campaign.
Ashby made her international debut against Sweden, logging eight minutes of action and making an immediate impact on the game with an and-one play through traffic.
GB fell in agonising fashion against Sweden, losing 64-62 after the game came down to the wire.
Ashby impressed on her first outing and was entrusted with 20 minutes against Estonia on the road. She went perfect from the field, hitting a three and making all four of her free throw attempts to put up eight points, eight rebounds and a steal on the game.
She now returns home, ready to suit up in Riders red as Leicester take on Cardiff Met Archers on the road on Saturday.
