"The table is set for one of the most exciting WNBA seasons to date, and Ionescu is right at the forefront," PWCC exec Jesse Craig said. "Collectors are anticipating that energy and excitement and looking to buy premier Ionescu cards. We're entering an interesting phase here where supply for these high-end cards won't be able to match the demand."

Ionescu was the first overall pick out of the University of Oregon in 2020. She's the NCAA women's all-time leader in triple-doubles (21), and, in her second pro season, she became the first player in league history to record a 30-point triple-double.

For her career, Ionescu averages 15 points, 7.1 rebounds and 6.3 assists per game.
