6-2 Mercer forward Zenia Palaska brings length, academics, and upside
Zenia Palaska is a 6-2 sophomore forward from Athens, Greece who gives Mercer size, mobility, and frontcourt depth, with a profile that leans more on developing impact than gaudy box-score volume. In the 2024-25 season, she appeared in 21 games with one start and averaged 5.2 minutes, showing flashes of efficiency and effort in limited time; across the season she was used as a low-usage, energy big rather than a featured scorer. Her differentiators are length, toughness, and a strong academic background, and she looks like a good fit for a team that values defense, rebounding, and upside over instant offense.
