Many recent incidents have highlighted WNBA stars sharing great relationships with their wives, or even splitting up, nearly reaching the breaking point. Fans also reacted to such stories, pointing out that most players live LGBTQ lifestyles. Amid this, many superstars like Napheesa Collier, Sabrina Ionescu, A’ja Wilson, Cailtin Clark, and Angel Reese are either married or have boyfriends.
The topic once again became relevant following Sue Bird and Megan Rapinoe’s separation. Amid that scenario, a few fans put up a challenge to the Liberty guard in a fun game.

Sabrina Ionescu Reacts To ‘Power Stright’ Question
The term Power Straight ” came up with Natasha Cloud using the term in an interview. During a 2025 WNBA Pride Night interview, New York Liberty player Cloud jokingly labeled teammate the roster’s “top power straight” and a dedicated ally. The former Oregon player also acknowledged the same.
Now the term once again hit the internet as fans hilariously challenged the Liberty star to live up to her ‘title’, mentioning that ‘someone has to do it.’ The player also laughed at the request and said, “I hope I’m still a power straight. Nothing’s really changed on my behalf.”

While the player laughed off the question, one thing that she still has to get over is her injury, as the player missed the start of the season, and her absence is hitting hard.
Sabrina Ionescu’s Possible Return Date Revealed
At the start of the season, the Liberty team received horrific news on their star player, who sustained a left foot and ankle injury after rolling her ankle during a preseason finale against the Connecticut Sun. Fortunately, subsequent MRI scans revealed no major structural damage, ruling out a repeat of the severe injury that sidelined her during her rookie year.
The team announced a minimum two-week recovery timeline, meaning she will be re-evaluated around mid-to-late May. Ionescu has already sat out the Liberty’s initial regular-season games, including a recent matchup against the Portland Fire. Importantly, she recently rejoined her teammates on the bench during their road trip to Portland, signaling positive progress in her rehabilitation.

Sadly, a Portland Fire pulled off a massive upset over the New York Liberty on a buzzer-beater, as fans keep talking about the same on social media. The Liberty fans, though, have to wait until the end of May for Ionescu’s return, pending the results of her upcoming medical re-evaluation.
