When the Washington Mystics selected Sonia Citron third overall in the 2025 WNBA Draft, they knew they were getting a special talent. What they probably didn't expect was for the Notre Dame product to make an All-Star appearance in her very first season. From her stunning debut—where she shot 6-for-7 and dropped 19 points in just 24 minutes—to earning that coveted All-Star nod, Citron has quickly become one of the most exciting guards to watch in the league.
But Citron's star power isn't limited to the court. Off the hardwood, she's making headlines with Dallas Cowboys linebacker Marist Liufau. The couple's social media exchanges are pure sports romance gold. When Citron was named an All-Star, Liufau posted a heartfelt tribute on Instagram: "All Star Game Day ⭐️. Appreciation post for this amazing woman. You inspire me to be better every day in sports and in life. I love supporting you. You are more than deserving of all your blessings! 💗." Citron's response? Simple and sweet: "Couldn't do it without you❤️."
Whether she's draining shots for the Mystics or suiting up for Hive BC in the Unrivaled league, Sonia Citron is proving that 2025 was just the beginning of something special. Keep an eye on this rising star—she's playing like she owns the spotlight.
