A sentence fragment is an incomplete thought that lacks a subject - verb combination or is a dependent clause standing alone. "Marina, an excellent basketball player." is a fragment as it is just a noun phrase with an appositive and has no verb to form a complete thought. The other options have a subject ("Marina") and a verb ("scored", "is", "has") and are complete sentences.
