Sabrina Ionescu: From Oregon’s “Prodigy” to WNBA’s Long-Range Queen

With 400 three-pointers to her name and records consistently shattered, Sabrina Ionescu is proving why she is considered one of the brightest stars in American women’s professional basketball.

NEW YORK – When the New York Liberty selected Sabrina Ionescu as the No. 1 pick in the 2020 WNBA Draft, they didn’t just acquire a talented player from the University of Oregon. They secured a true “record-breaking machine” capable of transforming the team’s identity.

Historic Milestone: 400 Three-Pointers in 151 Games

June 5 will forever be etched in New York Liberty history. During a game against the Washington Mystics, Sabrina Ionescu officially became the player with the most successful three-pointers in the team’s history, hitting her 400th and 401st. She surpassed Liberty legend Crystal Robinson with commanding authority.

What’s even more remarkable is the speed at which Ionescu reached this milestone. In just 151 games, she broke the WNBA record previously set by “shooting icon” Diana Taurasi for the fastest 400 three-pointers, doing so seven games quicker. This isn’t just a number—it’s a testament to her innate talent and relentless dedication.

Dynamic Duo with Breanna Stewart

The arrival of Breanna Stewart in 2023 created a perfect partnership for the New York Liberty. In an 85-66 rout of the Chicago Sky on June 10, Ionescu scored 23 points while Stewart added 18, showcasing their seamless chemistry.

“When Sabrina and Stewie both shine, we’re nearly unstoppable,” a source close to the team revealed. Indeed, the Liberty are maintaining flawless form in both the regular standings and the Commissioner’s Cup, underscoring their formidable strength.

Rising Above Challenges Amid Teammate Injuries

A star’s true talent shines brightest in adversity. When Jonquel Jones, a key pillar of the Liberty, was sidelined with an ankle injury,

Ionescu stepped up to shoulder the responsibility. She not only sustained her scoring prowess but also became the team’s emotional leader.

The return of Nyara Sabally after missing six games due to a knee injury further bolstered the Liberty. In her WNBA debut, Sabally delivered a flawless performance, going 4-for-4 from the field, highlighting the depth of the Liberty’s roster.

Impressive Stats

Beyond her three-point record, Ionescu dominates several of the New York Liberty’s statistical categories:

  • 4th in the team’s all-time scoring list
  • 2nd in the history of Liberty rebounds
  • One of the most influential players in the team’s offensive playstyle

Challenges Ahead

With a packed schedule looming, the Liberty will test their resilience when they face the Indiana Fever on the road this Saturday afternoon (3:00 PM, ABC). This will be an exciting challenge for Ionescu and her teammates, especially as they continue to build their legacy.

Future Vision

At a young age, Sabrina Ionescu has proven she is not only a talented player but also a natural leader. With her current record-breaking pace, no one can predict the heights she will reach in the future.

One thing is certain: fans of the New York Liberty and basketball lovers worldwide will continue to witness historic moments from the “long-range queen,” Sabrina Ionescu. With her current form, new records seem only a matter of time.
