Ionescu sits as Liberty fall to Dream
All-Star point guard shelved by hamstring in loss to Atlanta
Liberty All-Star point guard Sabrina Ionescu’s sore left hamstring kept her on the bench Tuesday night in Downtown Brooklyn.
The Atlanta Dream took full advantage of her absence.
Just four days after torching Atlanta for a career-high 37 points, Ionescu was unable to take the floor in the rematch as the Dream held on for an 86-79 victory over New York in front of 5,719 fans at Barclays Center.
