Sabrina Ionescu from Liberty Playfully Teases Breanna Stewart by Comparing Her to NBA MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander

The New York Freedom began their season strong with an undefeated 5-0 record, positioning themselves as serious contenders to defend their WNBA championship title from last season. In a close game against the Golden State Valkyries on Thursday night, the Freedom clinched an 82-77 victory. Breanna Stewart was the standout player for the Liberty, scoring 27 points and impressively converting all 15 of her free throw attempts. Her flawless free throw performance even drew playful comparisons from teammate Sabrina Ionescu to NBA MVP Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, known for frequently getting to the foul line. Liberty’s coach Sandy Brondello humorously associated Stewart’s consistent free throw success with Gilgeous-Alexander’s reputation for drawing fouls.

While Gilgeous-Alexander, often called a “free throw merchant” for his skill in drawing fouls and frequent trips to the line, sometimes attracts fouls that may be debatable, Stewart’s trips to the line result from the difficulty opponents face defending her, often leading to fouls. Despite their differing styles, both Stewart and Gilgeous-Alexander share the ability to get to the free throw line, and now both hold MVP titles. If Gilgeous-Alexander can lead the Lightning to their first NBA championship in June, they may find even more in common beyond their scoring skills and MVP awards.

Fan Take: This matchup highlights the rising star power in women’s and men’s basketball, showcasing how skill, strategy, and free throw proficiency play crucial roles in team success. For basketball fans, it’s exciting to see top athletes from both leagues being compared and celebrated, signaling a growing appreciation and integration of talent across the sport.
