“Joining the adidas Basketball family is a dream come true,” Sabally shared. “adidas is dedicated to innovation, creativity, and championing women’s sports. I can’t wait to inspire the next generation and continue moving the game forward with the support of my adidas family.”
Candace Parker, President of adidas Women’s Basketball, echoed this sentiment. “Satou was a priority addition to the adidas Basketball family, and we couldn’t be more excited to have her joining,” Parker stated. “Her versatility and commitment to making an impact made her a no brainer for the adidas roster. Satou is a unicorn on and off the court and we’re thrilled for her to help in building the future of adidas Basketball.”
Currently an WNBA free agent and Unrivaled’s Phantom BC forward, Sabally brings a unique blend of international experience and competitive drive. Her journey from the Dallas Stars to adidas represents more than just an athletic transition—it’s a powerful narrative of choice, empowerment, and strategic career development.

“I’ve already communicated with Dallas how grateful I am, because they’ve made this a home for me for the past years, and I’m working with them together and finding a next home for me,” Sabally previously shared.. “I’ve already played my last game in Dallas.”
Her story continues to unfold, promising to inspire countless young athletes who see themselves in her journey.
