Former Oregon Duck Sabrina Ionescu records historic WNBA triple-double
Former Oregon superstar Sabrina Ionescu entered the history books on Wednesday.
Ionescu tallied her third career triple-double, tying the WNBA record as the New York Liberty defeated the Las Vegas Aces 116-107. She finished the evening with 31 points, 13 rebounds, and 10 assists, and is now tied with Chicago Sky star Candace Parker for the most triple-doubles in league history.
The third-year point guard also became the first WNBA player to ever record a 30-point triple-double.
That marked Ionescu’s second triple-double of the season. In June, she became the youngest player in league history to record multiple triple-doubles.
