Opening Up The Files On The Boston Celtics

Sabrina Ionescu comments on Derrick White, Jrue Holiday wearing her shoes

WNBA superstar Sabrina Ionescu is one of five current players to have a signature shoe deal, and she’s only one of three to have a deal with Nike. The other two are Elena Delle Donne and Caitlin Clark.

The Sabrina series made a big hit in the WNBA and found their way throughout the NBA this past season, including with the Boston Celtics on their run to an NBA championship.

Payton Pritchard went to Oregon and starred for the basketball team during the same years Ionescu was starring for the women. Pritchard wore the Sabrina’s many times throughout the year and called them “the most comfortable” shoe.

“Well, I’ve known Sabrina for a long time. We went to Oregon together as freshmen. And her shoe is probably the most comfortable out right now. It’s light, so I like it.”

The Celtics All-NBA Defensive backcourt of Derrick White and Jrue Holiday are with Team USA wearing a new colorway for the Sabrina’s that Ionescu hasn’t even had for herself yet.

Ionescu said her goal was to make a shoe that was suitable for all basketball players, women and men, so she’s thrilled to see it happen.

Ionescu has the most comfortable shoe in the game right now. Her shoes are right up there in popularity with LeBron’s, Kobe’s, and JT’s.
