It took her just four seasons to break this record and by the time she’s done, it may be a mark that’s never broken.
Former Duck and current WNBA superstar Sabrina Ionescu just set the New York Liberty franchise record with 13 games where she scored 30 or more points. Cappie Pondexter was the previous record holder.
In the 82-74 win over Orlando, Ionescu scored 30 points, grabbed six rebounds, and dished out six assists. New York is now 21-4 in what is its best season in franchise history.
It’s also been a career season for Ionescu as she leads the Liberty in scoring (19.8 ppg) and assists (6.1).
Her teammate, Brianna Stewart, has 10 games where she has scored 30 or more for the Liberty. It’ll be interesting to see who ultimately holds the record once everything is said and done.
Both Ionescu and Stewart and the entire WNBA will take a break as their best players will go to Paris and play for Team USA in the Olympics later this month.
