✅Sue Bird believes Steph Curry vs. Sabrina Ionescu Coverage needed a woman on the Broadcast🏀
“There’s a women’s tee in golf and there’s a men’s tee for a reason,” Smith added.
“Good job Sabrina, don’t let any man put boundaries on you like Kenny,” Miller said ending the exchange.
Smith’s remarks following the contest definitely added a narrative that was unneeded from the historic moment, as Ionescu still excelled from the NBA three-point line which is 12 to 18 inches further from the WNBA line between the corners and top of the key.
In the 2023 season, Ionescu set a new WNBA single-season record for three-pointers made with 128. While Curry broke the NBA’s career three-pointers made record in December of 2021 to further bolster his claim as the best shooter in league history.
One of the highlights of #NBA All-Star Weekend was the three-point contest between Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry and New York Liberty guard Sabrina Ionescu. Which represented the first-ever NBA vs. WNBA three-point competition between two of the best shooters currently playing across any level of basketball.
