In April 2021, she left the team, entering the NCAA transfer portal.[2][1] Within a week, she announced on her Instagram page that she would return to Europe to pursue a professional career.[3]
Makurat has been a member of the Polish women's national basketball team.
Anna's older sister Ola Makurat has played basketball in NCAA Division I for three schools. Ola first played at Liberty from 2016 to 2018, and then transferred to Utah, playing there from 2019 to 2021 after sitting out a season due to NCAA transfer rules. With all NCAA basketball players in 2020–21 being granted an extra season of eligibility due to COVID-19, Ola remained eligible to play college basketball in the 2021–22 season; she chose to exercise her extra season, entering the transfer portal shortly before Anna[1][4] and eventually choosing to play her final college season at Arkansas State.[5]
