New York Liberty’s Sabrina Ionescu impressed the entire basketball world at the WNBA All Star Game 3-point shooting contest, scoring 25 out of 27 baskets. An all-time record for both men and women, she didn’t miss a beat on social networks, even challenging Stephen Curry.
Sabrina was clearly in fine form last Friday at the 3-point shooting contest organized as part of the WNBA’s All Star Game. Already very skilful in the qualifying round, where she scored 26 points out of a possible 40, the leader of New York’s Liberty team set the counters alight in the final.
Stephen Curry says he will return to three-point contest
After Sabrina’s feat, Stephen Curry said he will have to return to try to regain his throne.
“I’m going to have to go after Sabrina’s record, she went crazy and made 37 points in the All-Star. So they’re going to have to save a spot for me,” he told ESPN.
Soon a duel with Stephen Curry?
In addition to winning the contest, Sabrina Ionescu was praised on social networks by the NBA’s king of 3-point baskets, Golden State Warriors player Stephen Curry. Galvanized by her incredible performance, the player even responded in the form of a challenge.
The New York Liberty point guard will have the chance to show off her 3-point skills once again this Saturday, July 15, at the All Star game for which she has been selected with the Eastern Conference team.
