The former Sydney University Flames player was on the books of WNBL 1 side the Canberra Capitals until February when she was cut from the team after an off-the-court incident in Queensland.
However, she then joined the Gold Coast Rollers and went on to finish the season with 13 games played. Samuels averaged 41.44% from the field and 7.62 rebounds a game.
Heading to Malta will be the Australian’s first professional move across Europe.
Watch: Depiro appoint Dedelioglu as women’s coach
Samuels will now join new Depiro women’s coach Fatih Dedelioglu as the side aims to bounce back after a playoff-less season which sees Depiro make drastic changes to replace Monique Caruana and Hannah Johnson who left the club, and Kelly Koshuta who was not renewed for the season.
