Mamignan "Migna" Touré (born 19 December 1994) is a French professional basketball player who plays for Uni Girona of the Liga Femenina.

Professional career

[edit]

After two years in Arras's Ligue 2, Touré signed with Léon Trégor B29 in summer 2014.[1] After a successful 2014-2015 season (14.1 points and 4.3 rebounds), cut short by a meniscus injury, she returned to the elite ranks by signing with ASVEL Lyon-Villeurbanne in May 2015.[2]

Under the direction of Marina Maljković, Touré averaged 4.7 points and 1.8 rebounds, with a 2.5 efficiency rating. She signed with Cavigal Nice for the 2016-2017 season, which successfully retained its place in the Ligue 2.[3]

Touré joined Basket Landes for the 2018-2019 LFB season.[4] After two seasons in the Landes region (9.4 points at 38% from 2-point range, 20% from 3-point range, 2.4 rebounds, and 2.2 assists for an average rating of 5.4 in 27 minutes of play), she signed in April 2020 with the Belgian club Castors Braine,[5] but she left Belgium in November when Braine withdrew from the EuroLeague to play only the EuroCup.[6] She then signed with Lattes Montpellier.[7]

On 21 April 2025, Touré was signed to training camp contract with the Golden State Valkyries of the Women's National Basketball Association.[8] On 14 May, she was waived by the Valkyries.[9]

National team career

[edit]

In the summer 2013, Touré won the silver medal at the World Championship with the French national U19 team.[10]

With the French U20 national team, Touré won gold against Spain in July 2014.[11] In the group match against Turkey, she made five of five three-point attempts (18 points) in the second half of a game in which Les Bleues trailed by as many as 24 points before winning 52-50.[12]

In June 2019, Touré was selected for the French 3x3 team, which finished third at the World Cup.[13] In May 2021, Touré was a member of the French 3x3 team that qualified for the Tokyo Olympics[14] and finished fourth. She was pre-selected for the EuroBasket Women 2023 qualifying matches in November 2021.[15]
