Speaking about the new collection, Ionescu said, “I want to continue to open the door for a lot of other female athletes to get signature shoes and be in this space.

“I think it’s just part of my story. Growing up with brothers and being told that I can’t play basketball or play on the men’s team. So many things in my life have shaped who I am now.

“I don’t want to put anyone in that box. “I want kids and people of all age ranges, males and females, to be able to get this shoe and see themselves in it and the possibility of being who you want to be.”

Nike announced that the Sabrina 1 and signature apparel collection will be released in the summer ahead of the return of the WNBA season.
