LOS ANGELES (AP) The Los Angeles Sparks have signed guard Ana Dabovic of Serbia, the third new player they've added in two weeks.

Dabovic has been playing in the Turkish Women's League this season. The 6-footer is averaging 18.6 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.7 assists in 16 games so far. She also leads her team in 3-pointers made (16) and is shooting 88 percent from the free throw line.

New coach Brian Agler said Tuesday that Dabovic is one of the top scoreres in Turkey.

Dabovic has spent time with seven other international teams from 2005-13. She will reunite with former EuroLeague teammate Kristi Toliver on the Sparks.

Dabovic has represented Serbia internationally, earning three medals at various competitions.

The Sparks have also signed guard Erin Phillips and center Marianna Tolo, both from Australia, this month.
