Ionescu speaks after brief rookie season with Liberty
Phenom says season-ending injury was 'blessing in disguise'
Sabrina Ionescu went from surefire phenom to spectator with one untimely step just over two months ago.
The New York Liberty point guard, who played in only three games during her much-anticipated rookie campaign, has finally revealed what she was thinking moments after her season-ending ankle injury on July 31.
“How can I get this wrapped up to continue to play and win the game? Because we would have won the game,” Ionescu brashly said via Zoom Wednesday afternoon in her first media interview since the gruesome scene.
