Sabrina Elaine Ionescu (/jəˈnɛskjuː/ yə-NESS-kew; born December 6, 1997) is an American professional basketball player for the New York Liberty of the Women's National Basketball Association (WNBA). She is widely considered one of the greatest three-point shooters in the WNBA. She is a three-time WNBA All-Star and All-WNBA Team selection, and an Olympic gold medalist with the United States national team.

Ionescu played college basketball for the Oregon Ducks, where she twice won the John R. Wooden Award and Wade Trophy, earning consensus national player of the year honors as a senior. She set the Division I career triple-doubles record and is the Pac-12 Conference all-time leader in assists. Regarded as one of the greatest collegiate players in history, Ionescu was selected first overall by the New York Liberty in the 2020 WNBA draft. In 2023, she broke the WNBA single-season record in three-pointers and the WNBA Three-Point Contest record. She led the Liberty to their first league championship in the following year.
