Sabrina Ionescu Hit a 3, Puked, and Went Right Back to Playing

Talk about leaving a bad taste in your mouth.

The Las Vegas Aces are your WNBA champions, but not for lack of effort by the Liberty. This included guard Sabrina Ionescu, who hit a big three, threw up in a trash can, and went right on playing.

Not gonna lie, I’m a sucker for stuff like this. The whole “puke-and-play” thing is such a baller status move, but I’m a little taken aback that Ionescu didn’t even attempt to wash her mouth out with water before running back on the court. That’s just a bit too far.

In the end even puking and playing wasn’t enough. The Liberty lost Game 4 70-69, with the Aces winning the series 3-1. A’ja Wilson was on another planet to close out the series and New York had absolutely no answer for the Las Vegas forward. Wilson finished with 24 points and 16 rebounds, putting the team on her back and willing them to a championship.

It left Ionescu and the Liberty with a bad taste in their mouths — in more than one way.

It was a joke...

But they do drink a lot of power drinks sometimes to keep the electrolytes up. Wouldn’t be surprised if that may have been what she needed to expel. Just a guess though. Those drinks are kinda upper-ish though not illegal.

And this was viewed by the 37 people in the stands and watching at home?

Out of morbid curiosity, have the trannies been allowed into the WNBA yet? Would be fun seeing some average high school boy put on a dress and dominate the league. I might even watch.

I wasn’t even aware until this posting that they were holding their championship. This is part of the vast wasteland of leftist junk in this world that is ignorable.
