Ros SPENCE (Kalkallo – Minister for Agriculture, Minister for Community Sport, Minister for Carers and Volunteers) (10:49): Congratulations to Craigieburn local Ezi Magbegor for competing in the Paris Olympics this year representing Australia along with the rest of the Opals basketball team. Ezi has had a terrific sporting career, making her international debut at the 2015 FIBA U19 World Championship, where Australia took bronze, and since competing at the 2018 Commonwealth Games before she was signed with the Melbourne Boomers in the WNBL and eventually joined the WNBA team Seattle Storm in the United States. This is not Ezi’s first time competing at the Olympics, though; she previously competed in the Tokyo Olympics in 2021. I wish Ezi and all of the Australian athletes competing at the 2024 Olympics the very best of luck. These terrific role models give inspiration to so many young athletes who hope to follow in their steps as they pursue their sporting dreams.
