It's so sad that she won't be able to compete for the title
Ball is Life 🗿 dat wasn’t funny
Never heard of her until she spoke at Kobe's memorial. Now that I've paid attention to her I've become very impressed with her great accomplishments and competitive spirit (Mamba Mentality)! Hope she lands on the Sparks 💜💛
That's not happening. She doesn't deserve to play in a rotten city like L.A. New York isn't any better but that's where she will make her name to the blindfolded sports fans like you.
@@mattm5534 u mad?
Matt M that was pretty rude of you Matt
@@mattm5534 I know being quarantined can drive you crazy but take it easy, buddy.
@@jessebaker5940 OOHHH YA WIDDLE FEELINS HURT?
Incoming insecure trolls.... I trust Ko8e forever more than haters with sad mentality
Big Facts
She is a great player! Let the girl have her moment haters...
Always remember that most of the idiots who make these comments live shitty, unfulfilling lives and are projecting the impotent rage of their own ineptitude. Sabrina's gonna swag out whether they like it or not.
@@Brainling79 The "Make me a Sammich" crowd will never go away..And chances are she'd smoke every single one of them
@Ruthless Marmot learn how to spell at least 😂🤦
Smaller ball, any questions? No lie at least 10,000 men way better than her.
@Ruthless Marmot People do care so that's where your wrong.
I’m pissed that I just started paying attention in January, missed an amazing career
She’s gonna be a problem. Can’t wait to see her in Brooklyn!!!
Irrelevant Ignorance she plays for the nets?
She’s super nice too she signed my Kobe’s ❤️❤️
On the day she broke the record and spoke at Kobe’s memorial💔
Sad her senior season was cut short
Gregory Ford they would’ve won the national championship too
Ionescu such an american name...
:)))))) România all The way, baby!!!
Awesome! Pretty dope seeing women get their shine in basketball!
So lucky to see her in person play, so sad not to see Oregon finish their story, but winning the Pac-12 so commandingly was a victory in itself. The strength of the Pac-12 women's basketball was amazing to see this season. And most of all, inspiring thousands of people of all ages and genders in their community and beyond with the same pride and dedication traveling with them to see them play this magical season, is something to treasure forever. Inspiration will always live on and Sabrina the symbol of inspiration and staying for her senior season that much more magical a legacy for the program to grow on. Thank you ESPN for covering her story and her friendship with her brother. Inspiring and relatable to so many.
Triple Double Queen
I just wish that her and Ruth’s could be drafted to the same WNBA team, unstoppable really
Ruthy
She's Romanian blood 100% 🤗 Good luck to hear I might say ...In basketball and life
she’s such an amazing person on and off the court. she deserved this
How does this not have more views and likes? She’s so incredible.
Ezekiel Palmer all time leader for NCAA in pts assists and rebounds including men is a good start. Look she’s the next face of women’s b-ball now that white mamba is getting older.
Billeh lol she also played 4 years in college
Bc no one cares about wnba
Ezekiel Palmer Why compare her to men when she’s a women? It’s two different genders, that wouldn’t make any sense.
@@itzagamerzwrld771 Exactly 2 different genders so WNBA players should stop asking for the same amount of money as NBA players then
Men and women’s records should not be compared or comparable. Period
I don't think they are. Pretty sure they just added that in to explain the significance of her triple double count, which is pretty impressive considering she is only a PG.
She's the best
Go Miramonte HS!!! Sabrina’s one of the best matadors ever, hope she averages a triple double in the WNBA
It is wonderful to see the Ionescu twins support eachother throughout their school and college years, that's why they are so successful at such an young age
Goat
QUEEN
An incredible badass. I feel lucky to have seen her games!! Go ducks!
The most dominate college player in the country? That’s a bold statement! 😂
Rich's Rant MMA ik but according to stats yea she is lol😂
Girl is money💯
Who's here after the Steph-Sabrina 3 pt shootout? :)
🐐👑
So proud to see her playing and it makes me even more proud to see a fellow romanian making it big in the sport!!!❤️🇷🇴
Lady Ducks would have won the title this year, Carolina Etc. Didn’t stand a chance. What a shame. But the gals have 3 first round WNBA picks and the #1 class in the country 2021 so not worried. Kids sad for the 2020 season girls
Corona is defensive player of the year. Blocked the whole NBA.
original
This about the WNBA tho
Legend is a strong word ain’t it
You just hate women. Probably want her to make you a sandwich too
PandaJin777 a ham sammich sounds amazing
PandaJin777 lmao triggered much ?
Thierry Saint-Jour I am a male feminist, a Hillary voter and cuckoldry enthusiast.
Have you ever gone to a game and watched her play??
This is a Romanian name ..
Somebody know if is parents are Romanian ??? Because in Romania this is a usual name from many many many years ..
I just ask ...
did you watch the video? A simple wiki search would answer you - yes. Both parents are Romanian. She speaks romanian too.
Great story
She definitely looks like her dad
Looks like a Man!!!
Pray to God to heal our land.
John Mack pretty dumb to mock God especially with everything going on
Didn't God create this virus?
Congratulations! This is fantastic! Felicitari Sabrina!
Most dominant college basketball ball player 😂😂😂
Magoane is that funny? She’s broken every record over the men’s and women’s league. Still overrated? She’s the only player to reach 1,000 assists 1,000 rebounds 2,000 points in ALL NCAA. That’s what I thought. Your insecurity is what’s funny 😂😂😂
@@hopearnold9100 Lmao yeah still overrated.
BlackOwnedDollars how so? Please go into depth and give an explanation that is based off of stats like mine is because stats are unarguable.
Sabrina Ionescu gave me back my love for basketball. Now healthy in the WNBA she's an absolute joy to watch❣️🏀⛹️♀️
She got game
Great that she would be playing for NY Liberty.
@Heg Dog N need to embarrass yourself with dumb comments.
@Heg Dog why u hating on every comment I see?
BRUH YALL ARE hyping her up way too much
@John Mack ... Because they are people who do care ...
@@deucezulu_22 Sure, the 10 people that watch the WNBA care...
@@videogameboutique2196 @John Mack Y'all some straight trash talkers.
@@deucezulu_22 We're talking trash, because we're telling the honest to god truth?
I guess you prefer to tell yourself lies on how the WNBA is the best women's Basketball league in the world, huh?
@@videogameboutique2196 Let's see did I ever recall saying such a thing?... Nope. Like I said just straight up trash talk.
Does women basketball match the scope of men, of course not. But let's stop acting like they is no audience at all. Women's basketball been around since it's creation.
Congrats
I dont see how they can says shes the best .1st. She hasent played S.C GAMECOCKS.SHE WOULDT DO THAT TO THEM I PROMISS LMAO WHATEVER
Definitely a Legend...
How is it possible that I’m just now hearing about this “legend”?
Because we watch NCAA women's basketball less than the WNBA
because nobody watches women's sport
It's called women sports.
EXACTLY
Cuz she’s not a legend
If we could put Sabrina and Kaitlyn on the same team, I’m pretty sure they out score the US Olympic team by like 340 points in the first half
GOAT
Romaniaa! Dupa nume
I just bought my mom her signature kicks even though I don’t know her.. 😂
And yes, there are some brilliant minds that don’t have the physical attributes to execute them.. and Eddy was one.
❤
Tell me crazy, but seeing your best plays I can only think of the mamba mentality ... Mamba mentality. Ladies and gentlemen with you Sabrina Ionescu the heir to the mamba 🖤🐍
She is Romanian and I’m proud! 🇷🇴👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️
She inspires me
To make a sandwich?
Me too .Great player , great personality.
she’s built different
"He dindn`t take it easy on me" - great words!
Amazing ability player Sabrina
She is a beast
@Heg Dog why's you hating she deserves all the accolades. Rarely do you see an athlete that was good in college and still good in pros
Her twin brother who beat her in 1 on 1 more often than not, went to community college to hoop, she went to D1 major basketball school 😂 that’s why men’s hoops forever better
Ethan Beers she would destroy you tho 🤷🏾♂️
John Mack you’d get destroyed by Sabrina
Isaiah Robinson yup cuz I don’t play basketball every day of my life
Nightmare Nightmare no she doesn't, she's like 5'2 and slow. She won't play college any where
great player but plz dont crown her queen to early, legend is a bit far but she is the girl steve nash
TreGwop yea I used to feel the same way about Zion before his NBA career. Sometimes people get ahead of themselves but I really hope she'll have a HOF WNBA career.
Hopefully Sabrina flourishes - it would suck if she is all hyped but got injured constantly, fueded with teammates, became a ball-hog, or just stunk (Kwame Brown, Adam Morrison, Robert Swift)
Whew...content.
L E G E N D
will see,,time"'Answer!...;) :D)
Great Story on a pretty lady !!!
@Heg Dog - oh yes
Inspiring women
I wish more players would stay and finish their degrees...lots of D1 schools let their athletes miss as much class as they want and let other people.sit for their exams but still. It sends a better message to kids coming up...your getting a free education at a top university and even if you do go pro there will always be life after your career. Its pretty scandalous how these university's make so much money of their athletes and the only compensation they get is a full ride scholarship...if you go to the draft your sophomore then just be honest it was never about your education 😂
LIBERTY!!!!
Training all her life, how is she not more toned down? Is she a power player?
I don't follow the sport, just came up as recommendation.
Wow that’s nice when you have someone to share the love of basketball with. I wish I had someone to share the love of basketball with. I wish my brother i’d share the love of basketball with my brother but he don’t like basketball.
as far as I'm concerned .... she is the title I shall watch her professional career now
I'm a twin too (identical) I understand the closeness with her brother
You can tell she has a girlfriend
@@15nickjfan did I say it was a problem?
Just Sayin usually when people make comments like that it’s because they see that as a problem
@@15nickjfan Yeah in a world of 7-8 billion people someone else is going to have a different opinion than you
Shocking!
SonicKoolaid just asking for clarification. Chill
She such a amazing talent but it kinds sucks she will declare for a dysfunctional organization
WOW ! Great vision, athleticism and possesses very good skills .. She can even embarass the guys in NBA.
Is she having Romanian origins?
Obviously...her parents are from Romania.
knew her just a couple a days ago from ea nba live mobile. this is the first video i watched on my research on her. hope to see her do slam dunk
Yikes...
There's literally a girl on her team that's better than her...
King Larr who 💀
🐐🐐🐐🐐
Sabrina has made me a fan of women's basketball.
🇷🇴
WNBA. She has arrived
Rooting for her she’s a killer
She wasn’t better than Gigi
Poor Poor Gigi :(
Amazing as always
wheres the next video?
2020 version of Katie Smith
there’s ice in my veins but now in quarantine the ice is somewhere else
I-
Smash
according to this she never played high school ball?
She did, maybe not mentioned, but she did.
ScoDucks
Legend of what???
Of Korra
College basketball
No love for South Carolina? They deserve a story.
Good point the media is always pushing the great white hope she stunk it up yesterday
She was a Toastmaster as well, I double respect her
hahahaha best comment lol
She’s the first the women’s player to make two layups in a row
👍💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Wow....
Yoyooyoyoyo
Anyone else think shes too small for wnba? She remiinds me of diana taurasi
At least diana can recognize a double team coming without getting all flustered and throwing turnovers like yesterday
Its not that SERIOUS, women's basketball is boring, how's this remarkable? Where's the struggle?
Shame man im sure she struggles hard within the context of female basketball. But to call her the most dominant bball player 😂😂😂
you cant even dribble with your left hand lmao
Legend? Calm down the only women b-ball legend are Leslie, sue bird, and turasi.
Tamika Catchings and Tina Thompson are legends too. Cheryl Miller too.
@Nightmare Nightmare Yes she is.
@@bgilley8199 touche
@Nightmare Nightmare agreed
You forgot Cynthia Cooper and Swoops.
