Matt Varga If there’s a level beyond getting a signature shoe that cements you as a key piece in Beaverton, it’s the Asia tour. Something of a rite of passage for major players in Beaverton, evidenced by LeBron and KD in 2018, Giannis in 2023 and the entire Jordan Brand signature team heading out East in 2024, Sabrina Ionescu is the latest to head on the globe-trotting excursion, kicking things off with a visit to Manila.
It’s that Philippines locale that offers the most sneaker intrigue for our purposes, as official Nike press hints at the WNBA champ “unveil[ing] a new Nike Sabrina 2 collaboration.” For our money, we’d bet on the Titan 22 Sabrina 2 being the link-up in question. The Manila-based retailer has become a large piece of the Swoosh’s efforts to “grow the game” in recent years, with silhouettes like the Air Jordan 2 Low, Jordan 23 and LeBron NXXT Gen tapped for prior collabs.
Jumping back to the actual tour itself, Sabrina Ionescu will dart from Manila to Guangzhou before closing things out in Hong Kong. Along the way, her crucial stops will include the Philippines’ Aranneta Coliseum and the Nike All Hong Kong Schools Jing Ying Basketball Tournament, helping tangibly propel the next generation of hoopers.
