Oregon's star guard Sabrina Ionescu named AP women’s basketball player of the year. Ionescu was an unanimous selection receiving all 30 votes from the national media panel that selects the Top 25 each week. She joined former UCONN star Breanna Stewart as the only players to receive every vote since the awards conception in 1995. "That's pretty crazy. Someone I look up to and have a good relationship with," Ionescu told the AP. "To be in that class with her is an honor." Ionescu averaged 17.5 points, 9.1 assists and 8.6 rebounds this season as well as having eight of her 26 career triple-doubles.
