After earning her first WNBA title with the New York Liberty over the summer, Sabrina Ionescu has announced that she will join Unrivaled, the new 3 vs. 3 women’s basketball league. With this announcement, the league has filled its 36th and final spot.
Earlier in the month, the league made headlines when Under Armour announced it would be the Miami-based league’s official uniform partner and performance outfitter. However, since Sabrina is a Nike athlete with her signature sneaker line, she’ll be outfitted in her Nike model. Could we see any Unrivaled-colorway PE's throughout the season? Yes, please. Ionescu will also be entering the league fresh off surgery that repaired an ulnar collateral ligament tear she suffered in her right thumb during the WNBA finals.

Sabrina joins the Phantom, playing alongside Natasha Cloud, Brittney Griner, Marina Mabrey, Satou Sabally, and Katie Lou Samuelson. The league will tip off on January 17th, 2025, in Miami, with the season’s championship taking place two months later, on March 17, ensuring the league doesn’t interfere with the WNBA season.
