Liberty's Sabrina Ionescu to Compete in 2025 WNBA 3-Point Contest at All-Star Weekend

New York Liberty star Sabrina Ionescu has confirmed her participation in the 2025 WNBA 3-Point Contest, scheduled for All-Star Weekend on Friday. She revealed this news to The New York Post.

Ionescu initially sparked speculation about her involvement through a subtle Instagram post. The post featured a photo of her with Stephen Curry from last year's NBA All-Star 3-Point Contest, captioned only with several eyebrow-raising emojis.

This marks Ionescu's second appearance in the WNBA 3-Point Contest. Her last participation was in 2023, where she delivered a record-breaking performance by scoring 37 points in the final round – the highest single-round score in both WNBA and NBA history.

In 2024, Ionescu competed directly against Stephen Curry at the NBA 3-Point Contest, narrowly losing 29-26 to the Golden State Warriors star.

Currently in her sixth WNBA season, Ionescu is averaging 19.4 points, 4.6 rebounds, 5.3 assists, and 1.6 steals. While her three-point shooting percentage this season (32.4%) is a career low, she holds a career three-point percentage of 35.9%.

So far, Ionescu and Washington Mystics rookie Sonia Citron are the only confirmed participants for this year's WNBA 3-Point Contest, which is set to take place in Indiana.
