Kevin Durant yells at Sabrina Ionescu for the game’s wild winner

Game respects game.

Fellow players quickly took to social media to praise Sabrina Ionescu for her game-winning 3-pointer from the logo on Wednesday night that moved the Liberty one win away from the franchise’s first WNBA title.

Everyone from Kevin Durant to Tamika Catchings chimed in to express their admiration for Ionescu’s clutch shot in Game 3 against the Lynx.

“Cold-blooded killer @sabrina_i20,” Durant wrote on X.

“What a shot,” Luka Doncic posted with three flame emojis.

“O my God!!!!! SABRINNNNAAAAAAA!!!!” Catches added.

“Sabrina is so cold for it,” Dallas Wings player Arike Ogunbowale said.

“Wow Sabrina my goodness,” Victor Oladipo posted.

Ionescu held the ball at the midcourt line before beginning her attack, and with 3.4 seconds on the clock and the game tied at 77-77, she threw up a 28-foot shot that fell to the ground and helped lead the Liberty to 80-10. 77 win.

“I didn’t even really remember it,” Ionescu told reporters after the game. “I had to watch the video to see how far I had come. But in the timeout, Sandy just said, ‘You’re going to take that shot.’ I managed to get some distance from distance and let the shot go.”

Ionescu finished the game with 13 points on 5-for-12 shooting and six assists in a contest in which the Liberty came back from down 15 to take a 2-1 lead in the best-of-five final.

The Liberty star described the shot as “definitely the biggest shot of my career.”

“I imagine a lot when I’m training, in the offseason, the day before the game – I put myself in those situations… and that’s been a big development for me,” Ionescu added.

Ironically, the defining achievement came on the same day that the WNBA announced the members of the All-WNBA first team – one of whom was not included.

She was named to the All-WNBA second team and seemed to laugh it off after the game.

“It was just a great All-WNBA Second Team performance,” Ionsecu said.
