Sabrina Ionescu

Sabrina Ionescu took a minute to get cooking but ended her 2023 regular season campaign in record-setting fashion. The two-time New York Liberty All-Star missed all eight of her shots in the first half before catching fire after the break, finding an open spot in the corner and connecting on a pure 3-pointer off a heads-up dish from Courtney Vandersloot. The shot was Ionescu’s 122nd triple of the season, breaking Diana Taurasi’s single-season record that had stood since 2006. Ionescu drained all four 3-point attempts in the second half against the Los Angeles Sparks, and for the game tallied 16 points, four rebounds and five assists in New York’s 96-89 win on September 7, 2023.
