Dallas Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic and Golder State Warriors legend Stephen Curry also reacted in admiration to the iconic game-winning shot by Ionescu.

The game-winning shot came soon after the WNBA announced their All-League teams. Ionescu and Jonquel Jones were named members of the second All WNBA team, with Breanna Stewart earning first-team honors.

Sabrina Ionescu’s game-winning shot capped off a historic 15-point comeback for the New York Liberty. The feat only trailed the 17-point comeback victory that the Lynx pulled off in Game 1 of the series for the largest come-from-behind victory in a WNBA Finals.

Ionescu finished the game with 13 points on 37.5% shooting from behind the arc. Her Liberty teammate Breanna Stewart led the game in scoring with 30 points to complete the comeback. Following the match, Ionescu spoke about her feelings after hitting one of the biggest shots in WNBA history.

Obviously emotional, my family here is supporting me… That’s what sports is, that’s what life is, continuing to just grind through the tough times.

Sabrina Ionescu said

The Liberty All-Star also spoke about her thought process behind taking a shot from the logo to seal the game.

I trust in my preparation, I’m built for this moment. I missed one that could have sealed the game and I just got an open look and I trusted that I could make it.

Sabrina Ionescu addded

After losing the series’ first game, the Liberty now find themselves firmly in the driver’s seat with a 2-1 lead. Napheesa Collier and the Lynx will desperately look to claw their way back into the series. They will take on the Liberty in Friday night’s blockbuster Win-or-Go Home Game 4, which could possibly see the New York Liberty bring home their first-ever WNBA Championship.
