Tulsa freshman Gina Nikola Pirjak brings playmaking and two-way Croatian pedigree
Pirjak arrives at Tulsa as a freshman guard with a strong international resume: in Croatia’s 2024 U18 EuroBasket, she averaged 8.6 points, 5.3 rebounds and 2.7 assists in 33.8 minutes per game, showing a versatile, do-everything style rather than a one-dimensional scoring profile.[4][7] Tulsa lists her as a guard and notes she steadily improved through her club career, peaking at 16.1 points, 5.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 2.7 steals per game as a senior, which suggests competitiveness, growth and defensive activity.[5] She looks like a fit for a team that values ball-handling, rebounding from the perimeter and intensity.
