If the NBA has Stephen Curry, then the WNBA has Sabrina Ionescu. Widely known for being the record holder of the Three-Point contest, the New York Liberty guard has established herself as one of the deadliest outside scorers in the WNBA today.

Her Three-Point Contest feat surfaced last year, when she amassed a total of 37 points, breaking the all-time record for both the WNBA and the NBA. Now, it seems that she'll have a chance to go against the Golden State Warriors superstar himself.

While being mic'd up, Stephen Curry was speaking to Brandin Podziemski when the former mentioned inviting Ionescu for a shootout.

ā€œDo you know who holds the record for the most points in a three-point competition?ā€ Curry asked his teammate.

ā€œSabrina?ā€ Podziemski responded.

ā€œI think I've got to bring her out,ā€ Curry then said. ā€œWe've got to settle this once and for all.ā€

It seems like Ionescu caught wind of Curry's comments. Using her official X (Twitter) account, the Liberty star accepted Curry's challenge.

ā€œLet's get it! See ya at the 3-point line,ā€ she posted.

In 2023, Sabrina Ionescu averaged 17 points, 5.6 rebounds and 5.4 assists per game. Besides her Three-Point Shootout record, she also broke the WNBA all-time record for made threes in a single season. Her 128 makes from downtown surpasses Diana Taurasi's previous record of 121.
