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?
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.
It's so sad that she won't be able to compete for the title
Ball is Life 🗿 dat wasn’t funny
She’s super nice too she signed my Kobe’s ❤️❤️
On the day she broke the record and spoke at Kobe’s memorial💔
she’s such an amazing person on and off the court. she deserved this
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.
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
Awesome! Pretty dope seeing women get their shine in basketball!
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
She’s gonna be a problem. Can’t wait to see her in Brooklyn!!!
Irrelevant Ignorance she plays for the nets?
So proud to see her playing and it makes me even more proud to see a fellow romanian making it big in the sport!!!❤️🇷🇴
Incoming insecure trolls.... I trust Ko8e forever more than haters with sad mentality
Big Facts
I’m pissed that I just started paying attention in January, missed an amazing career
An incredible badass. I feel lucky to have seen her games!! Go ducks!
Sad her senior season was cut short
Gregory Ford they would’ve won the national championship too
Congratulations! This is fantastic! Felicitari Sabrina!
Amazing as always
She's the best
Ionescu such an american name...
:)))))) România all The way, baby!!!
I just wish that her and Ruth’s could be drafted to the same WNBA team, unstoppable really
Ruthy
Sabrina Ionescu gave me back my love for basketball. Now healthy in the WNBA she's an absolute joy to watch❣️🏀⛹️♀️
Triple Double Queen
"He dindn`t take it easy on me" - great words!
Great story
QUEEN
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.
She inspires me
To make a sandwich?
Me too .Great player , great personality.
Definitely a Legend...
She is Romanian and I’m proud! 🇷🇴👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️
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 🖤🐍
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.
Congrats
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
Goat
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
Go Miramonte HS!!! Sabrina’s one of the best matadors ever, hope she averages a triple double in the WNBA
She's Romanian blood 100% 🤗 Good luck to hear I might say ...In basketball and life
Girl is money💯
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??
GOAT
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?
❤
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
Wow....
🐐🐐🐐🐐
Historic!
Who's here after the Steph-Sabrina 3 pt shootout? :)
wheres the next video?
She definitely looks like her dad
Great Story on a pretty lady !!!
@Heg Dog - oh yes
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
She got game
👍💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
there’s ice in my veins but now in quarantine the ice is somewhere else
I-
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.
LIBERTY!!!!
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
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?
@@a.hollins8691 Who patented the virus?
Corona is defensive player of the year. Blocked the whole NBA.
original
This about the WNBA tho
🇷🇴
Sabrina has made me a fan of women's basketball.
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.
Whew...content.
she’s built different
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😂
She was a Toastmaster as well, I double respect her
hahahaha best comment lol
wonder how far they'll go < 3
.
L E G E N D
will see,,time"'Answer!...;) :D)
I knew Chael Sonnen was right. Blood was shed in the mean streets of Oregon. Twins go to different schools, late night basketball playing... It was rough breaking curfew.
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.
Inspiring women
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.
Romaniaa! Dupa nume
2020 version of Katie Smith
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)
Rooting for her she’s a killer
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 😂
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
*Top 10 cookers of all time*
WOW ! Great vision, athleticism and possesses very good skills .. She can even embarass the guys in NBA.
Yoyooyoyoyo
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
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.
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.
She’s the first the women’s player to make two layups in a row
A legend who I’ve never heard of 🤔
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
Is she having Romanian origins?
Obviously...her parents are from Romania.
just out of curiosity, how many championships did this legend win?
tyun529 why does that matter
How many championships did Charles Barkley win? How many championships did Vince win? How many championships did Allen Iverson won?
And again Sabrina will win championships in the WNBA level, she would very likely have won the NCAA championship this season had the tournament not been canceled
Yikes...
I know that probably nobody else thinks the same way I do but imma say it anyway. In the thumbnail, the 1 where she stares at the camera kinda makes her look like a long hair having version of Rob Dyrdek.
ScoDucks
according to this she never played high school ball?
She did, maybe not mentioned, but she did.
She such a amazing talent but it kinds sucks she will declare for a dysfunctional organization
Smash
🐥
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
Who?
