My Take
Sabrina Ionescu is, to my eye, rewriting what a guard can be. Out of Walnut Creek, California, she dominated college ball at Oregon, sweeping the Wooden Award and Player of the Year honors, and now stars for the New York Liberty as arguably the finest three-point shooter the WNBA has seen. What grabs me isn't just the gaudy stat lines or her record triple-doubles, it's her unshakeable nerve in clutch moments. She carries herself like someone who expects to win. As a face of the women's game, I think her legend is still in its early chapters, and that's thrilling.
