Sabrina Ionescu tracker: Follow the Oregon star's season

When Sabrina Ionescu announced after last season’s Final Four that she would return to the University of Oregon for her senior season, fans of women’s college basketball became giddy.

That meant more neck-breaking assists, more silky 3-pointers, more cold-blooded clutch moments and more viral highlights from the Ducks’ star in the 2019-20 season.

The 21-year-old Ionescu is one of the most electric players in all of basketball, the epitome of can’t-miss and must-watch performances. She’s a two-time Nancy Lieberman Award winner, a two-time Pac-12 Player of the Year, the winner of the Wooden and Wade awards, and already the NCAA’s all-time leader in career triple-doubles. And she’s a near-lock to be the No. 1 overall pick in the 2020 WNBA Draft.

But before then, Ionescu has one more season to play at Oregon. Last year, the Ducks came up just short of winning it all, losing in the Final Four to eventual champion Baylor. This season, Ionescu and the Ducks have their sights set on New Orleans and getting back to the biggest stage in the sport.

What to expect this season

Ionescu enters her senior campaign with the chance to join an exclusive club.

Ionescu also has the chance to win a third Nancy Lieberman Award – given to the nation’s top point guard – which has only been done once, by UConn’s Sue Bird. Additionally, another Pac-12 Player of the Year award would put her in the company of Stanford’s Candice Wiggins as the only three-time winners.
