Although a large part of the weekend celebrations around the New York Liberty exhibition game surrounded the superstar Sabrina Ionescu on May 12, another former former basketball star of the Oregon women in Oregon played an outstanding role for the WNBA champions from last year.

Nyara Sabally, who fought in the first half of her college career in Eugene in the first half of her college career in Eugene through several ACL tears, was a star for Liberty in a close-out game 5 of the WNBA final in October. The professional in the fourth year achieved a playoff career high of 13 points to achieve seven rebounds to help New York has been winning its first WNBA title for existence as a franchise for almost three decades.

Her performance took off the sold -out crowd during the game “Nyara” and expected another warm reception in the Matthew Knight Arena, while the Liberty appears against the Toyota Antilopes of the Japanese Basketball League of women.

“A group of excitement and joy to be back here at this dish,” said Sabally.

Since Sabrina Ionescu drove the Interstate 5 from Bay Area to Eugene almost a decade ago to sign her letter of intent to play at the University of Oregon in 2016, Ionescu did not change.

Sure, she has won more confidence since she became a NCAA all-time leader in Triple-Double and the first player in the history of the NCAA, to record 2,000 points, 1,000 templates and 1,000 rebounds.

She has improved her shootout and has become stronger over the years since she became stronger last season with the New York Liberty and a gold medalist with Team USA at the 2024 Olympic Games last season.

But in its core Ionescu has not changed (read more).
