The Dallas Wings‘ Satou Sabally recorded her first triple-double Friday night in a 90-62 win over the visiting Washington Mystics — another highlight to a season that’s catapulted her star status in the WNBA.
“[We’ve] got to have her. We always talk about the big three [rounded out by Arike Ogunbowale and Natasha Howard] and she’s a huge part of that,” said Wings coach Latricia Trammel following Sabally’s 14-point, 11-rebound and 10-assist performance. “We better start talking, putting her name in the MVP talk and a lot of other categories, because she’s getting it done.”
Sabally is the second player in Wings history to achieve a triple-double. Deanna Nolan notched one in 2005 when the franchise was in Detroit as the Shock.
“It means a lot to me,” Sabally said. “It’s a really humbling experience. They drafted me in COVID years, and it was just a lot going on, so to be able to do that in a Wings uniform just really means everything to me.”
