About Sabrina Ionescu: Sabrina Ionescu is a basketball player for the New York Liberty of the WNBA. Before joining the Liberty, Sabrina played for the University of Oregon where she was unanimously voted the 2020 AP Women’s Basketball Player of the Year.

Ionescu tallied the league’s first-ever triple-double in less than three quarters and the first-ever 30-plus point triple-double.
Sabrina is much more than just a basketball player; the 25-year-old star has quickly become one of the most marketable names in all of sports.
