In 2023, Nike made Sabrina Ionescu just the 12th WNBA player in history with their own signature name-bearing sneaker. The Nike Sabrina 1 made history as the highest all-time grossing women's basketball sneaker, transcending gender and becoming the second most-frequently worn sneaker in the NBA.
The Nike Sabrina 2 was even more powerful, cementing the signature line as a go-to basketball shoe for all levels constantly reinventing itself with new colorways. As the New York Liberty embark on the second half of their season, Sabrina Ionescu will celebrate her newest sneaker silhouette as she looks for an added boost to help her team's championship journey.
Nike Sabrina 3
The Nike Sabrina 3 arrives in a simple, yet effective construction not too far off from its predecessors in the Sabrina 1 and 2. The shoes follow a similar low-top structure, but this time around we see a knitted upper with a Flywire lockdown system throughout the midfoot. With an updated Cushlon midsole, we see a return of the typical Nike Zoom outsole that made this shoe such a popular option in the first place.

Releasing in an orange and yellow 'All-Star' colorway on July 18, finer details reveal Ionescu's logo on the tongue as well as on the insole. Sabrina Ionescu's signature in inscribed on the back heel midsole, a subtle nod to the same detail seen on the Nike Kobe 8. The 'Blueprint' colorway will release on July 26, featuring blue and gold hues to go along with the Liberty's uniforms.
The Sabrina 3 will retail for $135 and comes in full sizing. The shoes will see a public release on Nike SNKRS app and will be carried at all Nike Basketball retailers. Given the success of the two previous models, Nike should be in for another banger as they promote the WNBA's sneaker queen.

Pat McAfee's Home Run Derby introduction for Cal Raleigh got way too real: ‘Fattest ass in all of professional sports'
Pat McAfee took Cal Raleigh's nickname to another stratosphere. Known affectionately as 'Big Dumper' because of his rather large rear end, Raleigh's comedic nickname turned into a whole lot more when McAfee introduced the Mariners catcher for the Home Run Derby. 3 ESPN's Pat McAfee introduced the Home Run Derby participants and was particularly excited during Cal Raleigh's. X/Jomboy Media 'Hailing from Cullowhee, North Carolina, a man who's doing something that no catcher has ever done in the history of the sport,' McAfee led Raleigh's intro. 'With the fattest ass in all of professional sports … Ladies and gentlemen: Big Dumper! Cal Raleigh!' The All-Star catcher has embraced his nickname, but that type of introduction in front of the fans in Atlanta and the national television audience viewing the derby at home was certainly a first. 3 YES Network recently made multiple zoom-ins during a hilarious segment about Cal Raleigh's nickname, 'Big Dumper.' YES Network While it was shocking to hear McAfee's comments, Raleigh recently appeared on Pat McAfee's self-titled ESPN show and discussed his nickname, so perhaps the rapport to say such a thing was built beforehand. Raleigh's posterior certainly isn't hurting him, as Big Dumper currently leads all of baseball in home runs with 38 through the All-Star break. He also posts a .259 batting average, an OPS of 1.010 and an MLB-leading 82 RBIs. 3 Cal Raleigh before the Home Run Derby. Getty Images Like his play, Raleigh's nickname has gone nuclear, as jerseys are even sold at the Mariners' stadium with Big Dumper on the back. 'In the stadium, you see more 'Big Dumper' jerseys than you do Raleigh jerseys,' Raleigh told GQ Sports. 'I think they were getting a lot of requests, so they just sell them on the rack now. Apparently they sold out. Someone brought a jersey for me to sign the other day and they said all the adult sizes were out.' Big Dumper also received quite the segment from YES Network during Seattle's recent series against the Yankees, where the game broadcast could not keep its camera shots off of the 'fattest ass in all of professional sports.'

Cruz hits 513-foot homer, joins Raleigh, Caminero and Buxton in Home Run Derby semifinals
ATLANTA (AP) — Pittsburgh's Oneil Cruz hit a 513-foot drive over Truist Park's right-center field seats while advancing to the second round of the All-Star Home Run Derby along with Seattle's Cal Raleigh, Tampa Bay's Junior Caminero and Minnesota's Byron Buxton on Monday night. Atlanta's Matt Olson, Washington's James Wood, the New York Yankees' Jazz Chisholm Jr., and the Athletics' Brent Rooker were eliminated. Cruz and Caminero each hit 21 long balls and Buxton had 20 in the opening round of the annual power show. Raleigh and Rooker had 17 apiece, but Raleigh advanced on the tiebreaker of their longest homer, 470.61 feet to 470.53. Cruz faced Raleigh in the semifinals, while Caminero took on Buxton. The longest derby homer since Statcast started tracking in 2016 was 520 feet by Juan Soto in the mile-high air of Denver's Coors Field in 2021. Last year, the longest drive at Arlington, Texas, was 473 feet by Atlanta's Marcell Ozuna. Cruz's long drive was the hardest-hit at 118 mph. Raleigh, who leads the major leagues with 38 homers, was pitched to by his father, Todd, former coach of Tennessee and Western Carolina. His younger brother Todd Raleigh Jr. did the catching. Just the second Derby switch-hitter after Baltimore's Adley Rutschman in 2023, Raleigh hit eight left-handed, took a timeout, then hit seven right-handed. Going back to lefty, then hit two more in the bonus round. Wood hit 16 homers, including a 486-foot shot and one that landed on the roof of the Chop House behind the right-field wall. Olson, disappointing his hometown fans, finished with 15 and was eliminated in the first round for the second time. Chisholm hit just three homers. ___ AP MLB:

Dave Roberts is ‘all about' Jacob Misiorowski's controversial All-Star selection
Dodgers manager Dave Roberts is not among those mad about Jacob Misiorowski's upcoming All-Star Game appearance. The Brewers flamethrower was selected for the Midsummer Classic despite having just five major league starts under his belt, the lowest total for a player in the game. As such, he's been a target for criticism by fans, pundits and even his fellow MLBers. Advertisement But Roberts, manager of the National League squad, told reporters Monday that it was 'an easy decision' to include the young pitcher. 3 Dave Roberts at the MLB All-Star game in Atlanta Brett Davis-Imagn Images 'If it brings excitement, attention to our game, then I'm all about it,' Roberts said before Monday's Home Run Derby. 'I think for me, kind of my North Star is the All-Star Game should be the game's best players. It's about the fans and what the fans want to see.' Advertisement Misiorowski made his MLB debut on June 12 and quickly capitivated fans with his hard-throwing ways — his first big league pitch clocked in at 100.5 mph. While his first start was abbreviated due to an injury, he finished with five dominant innings. Misiorowski has a 4-1 record with a 2.81 ERA, 33 strikeouts and has only allowed 12 hits in 25 ⅔ innings pitched. 3 Brewers pitcher Jacob Misiorowski (32) reacts following the final out of the third inning against the Los Angeles Dodgers. IMAGN IMAGES via Reuters Connect Advertisement His late arrival to the Brewers and a lack of experience have irked some NL rivals — chiefly the Philadelphia Phillies. 'What a joke,' Philly shortstop Trea Turner said Sunday, per The Athletic. 'That's f—ing terrible. I mean that's terrible, dude.' While Misiorowski is the target for the Phillies' anger, the reasoning is the youngster getting the nod over the likes of Christopher Sanchez, who is 8-2 with a 2.50 ERA. 3 Phillies shortstop Trea Turner. Bill Streicher-Imagn Images Advertisement '[It] was not an attack at Misiorowski by any means. It's an honor for him that he's here and it should be an honor for him, slugger Kyle Schwarber, Philly's lone All-Star, said. 'It's not his fault that he's only pitched five games and he got named.' Even with all the controversy, Misiorowski is enjoying his time as an All-Star. 'The last five weeks have been insane,' Misiorowski said. 'I thought the All-Star break would be a chance to sit down and reflect. Now we're here.'
