One special shot can change everything for a player, and for Sabrina Ionescu, that shot is her floater. This season, her game has improved a lot because Stephen Curry helped her make this tricky shot even better. Their partnership has drawn attention from fans and analysts, showing Curry’s mentorship and sportsmanship at its finest.
After Sabrina Ionescu’s first year ended because of an injury, things changed for her. She was really good at a shot called the floater in college, but her hurt foot made it hard to do. She said, “I’ve always had it… I think having an injury on my left foot derailed me from being able to use that.”
Even though she felt down, she stayed hopeful about coming back. With Stephen Curry’s help, she brought the floater back into her game. At the 2024 NBA All-Star Weekend, Sabrina and Curry looked great together.
She praised Curry’s floater skills, saying, “He does it the best.” Even though Curry won the 3-Point Challenge with a score of 29 to her 26, they clearly respected each other.
