Paces New York in victory Ionescu supplied 26 points (9-19 FG, 5-13 3Pt, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and five assists across 31 minutes in Tuesday's 93-85 Commissioner's Cup Championship win over the Aces.

Impact Ionescu bounced back in this one following a nine-point effort in Sunday's loss to Golden State. She knocked down a game-high five triples en route to a team-best 26-point performance, and she also led the Liberty in assists. The 28-year-old guard has struggled through eight regular-season outings (seven starts), averaging 9.5 points, 3.8 rebounds and 3.4 assists while shooting just 27.0 percent from three-point range in 27.6 minutes per game, so Tuesday's performance is encouraging.

Posts dud in loss Ionescu ended Sunday's 98-97 loss to Los Angeles with two points (1-3 FG, 0-1 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists in 22 minutes.

Impact Ionescu's struggles have been evident this season, with this being arguably her worst game. She's been held to single-digit points in three of her last four games, and it may take some patience from fantasy managers before she finds her rhythm due to some early-season injuries.

JUNE 22 • ROTOWIRE

Scores nine points in loss Ionescu finished with nine points (4-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt), one rebound and three assists across 30 minutes in Friday's 86-83 loss to Washington.

Impact Making her third appearance since missing seven games because of a back injury, Ionescu had only nine points Friday. She also shot an inefficient 1-for-6 from deep. With that in mind, the 28-year-old might continue to underproduce while she shakes off the residual rust caused by the extended layoff, though she could return to form sooner rather than later.

Notches 10 points in start Ionescu recorded 10 points (4-9 FG, 2-4 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist over 28 minutes during Wednesday's 96-95 victory over the Sky.

Impact While this wasn't a big performance by Ionescu's standards, her fantasy managers will be happy to see her back in the starting lineup with a sizable workload. Injuries have derailed her 2026 WNBA season thus far, but good things could be ahead.

Starting versus Chicago Ionescu will start in Wednesday's game against Chicago.

Impact Ionescu returned for Sunday's 86-64 win over Washington after missing the previous seven regular-season contests. She logged 26 minutes, finishing with five points, three rebounds and three assists. With that in mind, Ionescu could turn it around Wednesday, now that she had a chance to shake off any residual rust caused by the extended layoff.

Racks up 26 minutes off bench Ionescu registered five points (1-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds and three assists across 26 minutes during Sunday's 86-64 victory over the Mystics.

Impact Ionescu was playing just her second game of the season, and it was believed she would be playing on a minutes restriction. However, she played the third-most minutes of the game for the Liberty, and she turned in a team-best plus-18 margin. It appears Ionescu is rounding the corner, and ready to once again assume her place as a fantasy regular.

On minutes restriction Sunday Ionescu (back) is cleared to play in Sunday's game against the Mystics, though she will operate under a minutes restriction, Madeline Kenney of the New York Post reports.

Impact Ionescu will play in her second game of the 2026 campaign and make her first appearance since the 91-76 loss to Dallas on May 24. Although it's not known how much action the star guard will see after the lengthy layoff, it could be enough to drastically reduce the production of Pauline Astier and Rebekah Gardner.

JUNE 14 • ROTOWIRE

Not listed on report for Sunday Ionescu (back) isn't listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Mystics.

Impact Ionescu is set to return from a seven-game absence due to back soreness, though it wouldn't be surprising to see her operate on a minutes restriction considering she's made just one appearance this season. Still, the star guard's presence will leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Pauline Astier and Rebekah Gardner.

Impact Ionescu appears to be trending in the right direction after missing the Liberty's last seven games due to back soreness. The star guard may operate under a minutes restriction following the extended absence, though her presence would still leave fewer minutes available for the likes of Pauline Astier and Rebekah Gardner.
