Did we ever talk about this kid?

It's not every day a girls high school player of Romanian extraction makes a stir on US basketball courts. I must've blacked out that week if she has appeared on this board before.

She sure seems like a UCONN type player!

Not only that but she [dare I say?] looks like another Kelly.

Don't think she was specifically noted beyond the fact that she and Taylor Murray were non-invitees who were selected to the team. And in the games Durr and Samuelson dominated the headlines - but interesting to note that she did start all 5 games.

Sabrina Ionescu was on the U-16 team that featured Asia Durr and won gold in Mexico last month. She started all 5 games, but played only 88 minutes. She scored 17 points, an average of 3.4 per game. She shot 7-24 (29%) including 1-10 from 3 pt. Not too good, but had 10 assists (tied for 1st w/ Durr) and grabbed 19 rebounds (6th highest). Nine steals (4th place) and only 4 turnovers. Tough, skinny player.
