SABRINA IONESCU ADDRESSES GROUNDBREAKING TRAVEL CHANGES IN THE WNBA

WNBA superstar Sabrina Ionescu spoke out on the previous change by the league office. Every team will now have charted flights for the first time in league history. meaning the long TSA lines and waiting at the airport for these WNBA athletes are over. 

Part of this decision from the league came from security concerns, while another side saw the reasoning of investing in the league and its players. 

"Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes. I'm so excited idk what else to say besides, YES," said Ionescu, via Instagram. 

Players around the league have vocalized their concerns about issues at the airport and during travel, with crazed fans and time being a major issue. Some of these changes came from the arrival of young rookies Caitlin Clark and Angel Reese. 

Ionescu has been a star in the league for a couple of years, and it's incredible to see players like her reap the benefits of increased viewership and popularity around the league. 

This decision by the WNBA will cost the league $25 million for each of the next two seasons.
