Liberty freshman Zeynep Avci is a 6-foot guard whose value starts on the glass
Avci is a young, high-upside Liberty guard who already stands out for rebounding effort, positional size, and toughness rather than volume scoring; Liberty specifically highlighted her as an “active rebounder” whose board work separated her from other recruits, and she showed that same profile with Turkey at the 2024 FIBA U16 Women’s EuroBasket Division B, averaging 4.6 points and 3.9 rebounds while posting an 8-point, 11-rebound semifinal. In her 2025-26 freshman season at Liberty, she played 14 games with limited minutes, so the main draw is developmental upside, activity, and fit for a team that values length and hustle on the wing.[2][4][6][8]
