When it comes to shooting, Sabrina Ionescu is operating on another level—and 2023 was her masterpiece.
The former Oregon standout and current Liberty star broke the WNBA record for most three-pointers in a single season, draining 121 threes and surpassing Diana Taurasi’s previous mark of 121 set in 2006 (tied by herself). She shot 44.8% from deep, an elite clip that ranks among the best in league history. She also hit 92.1% of her free throws, placing her in the top 5 all-time for single-season FT percentage.
Ionescu’s defining moment came during the 2023 All-Star Weekend three-point contest, where she scored 37 points out of a possible 40—missing only two shots. It was the highest score in any NBA or WNBA contest ever, beating Stephen Curry’s 31. Even Curry himself tweeted in admiration, calling her “absurd” in the best way.
But beyond stats, Ionescu has become a culture-setter. With her bold style, killer confidence, and increasing clutch performances, she’s not just a star—she’s one of the faces of the modern WNBA. She’s breaking records, building a legacy, and taking the league to new heights—one three at a time.
