Cal is definitely in the play. Depends on whether she wants to stay home. If you check previous posts you will see a lot about her. Has a good relationship with Lindsey. but she has an offer from Connecticut so time will tell. Probably our number one target
Cal has Kristine Anigwe, Ionescu's friend and USA teammate, reportedly urging Sabrina to join her in Berkeley. Kristine has stated she's also working on Natalie Wong from Plano, Texas, another USA teammate. What a backcourt those two would make for Cal in 2016.
Natalie Chou
Ionscu has lots of good offers but I think she has the strongest connection with Cal.
As noted, Anigwe is definitely selling her on Cal but they've both talked about playing together at Cal for the better part of a year. It's definitely not a one-way street.
Ultimately, unless Sabrina's one of those kids that just wants to get away, I think she ends up at Cal. And if so, wouldn't be surprised at all to see Chou follow as the three of them are really tight and that would be huge.

What's the shot clock in 3 on 3? 5 seconds?
10 or 12 seconds or somewhere in that region.

Amazing that the rules state that the men have to use the women's basketball as well. If you ever tried shooting a women's basketball, it takes awhile to get used to.

You know, I go back and forth from the men's to the women's ball, and it never really bothered me much. I can miss just as easily with either one ...
Is the signing period April 15th - May 20th like MBB? After going through an agonizing period with MBB (which turned out better than I ever dreamed of), the suspense is killing me.

Ionescu is class of 2016, so she has until next year to sign.

Thanks. Watching the 3 of them play together on the 3x3, I lost track. Forgot that Kristine is part of our 5 player class this year.
Someone on Uconn board saying rumblings of Ionescu likely to Oregon, that would be a real bummer, especially coming in second Washington for Plum. Fingers crossed Sabrina heads to Cal!
I guess we will have a little over 6 months to find out if she signs during the early period and a little over 10 months if she signs during the regular period. I guess she could commit earlier for what that is worth. For Decosta, we can add 2 more years to that timetable. Fortunately the last two classes were great. It would be a bummer if we lose out on Sabrina.
The word at the Orinda Nation's Burger is that she is a bear. Much more reliable source than Boston Market.

Lets see what Nike says about this!!!!
Note that the Orinda Nation's is right across the street from the CalStars' office, which is where Sabrina's high school and club coach takes care of basketball business.
If proximity is any guide, that info should be weighted accordingly.
I just hope she stays on the West Coast -- too many elite players wind up on the other side of the Mississippi.
