WNBA Fans Cry Tampering Amid Sabrina Ionescu and Satou Sabally Unrivaled Reunion

In exactly two weeks from now, the women's basketball world will be tuning in to the inaugural weekend of the Unrivaled Women's Basketball League, which is taking place in Miami, Florida, and running from January 17 to March 17.

One of the most compelling parts of Unrivaled is that fans get to see WNBA superstars teaming up for the first time, as they're usually pitted against each other. This creates fascinating combinations and the chance for players who are usually rivals to become teammates and perhaps friends by the time Unrivaled's season ends.

It also means that former teammates can now reunite; which is the case with former Oregon Ducks superstars Sabrina Ionescu and Satou Sabally, who spent several seasons in college together and built a great friendship there.

Both Ionescu and Sabally are on Unrivaled's Phantom BC team. And during the league's media day, the two got to take some wholesome photos of them embracing, which Ionescu posted to her Instagram story on Friday.

Alfred Corriette reposted one of these photos on X while noting the, "Back with my girly” caption Ionescu used.
