Sabrina Ionescu Undergoes Ankle Procedure, Eyes Return in 2021

New York Liberty guard Sabrina Ionescu underwent a "minor ankle procedure," on Monday, the team announced.

Ionescu injured her ankle in her third career game on July 31, two days after a 33-point performance against the Dallas Wings. Her injury was deemed a high-ankle sprain, and she missed the remainder of New York's 2020 season.

“With the long offseason, I am committed to returning in 2021 fully prepared to rejoin my team and jumpstart my WNBA career,” Ionescu said in a statement on Monday. “My rehab has been going very well and I look forward to getting back on the court.
