The parades are over, both the trip down the Canyon of Heroes to celebrate the WNBA title and the one down Broadway on Thanksgiving. Now, all that’s left is raising the first championship banner at Barclays Center ... and it looks like we have a date now for that.
The New York Liberty will open their defense of the WNBA championship at 3:00 p.m. ET on May 17 at Barclays Center vs. the Las Vegas Aces featuring 2024 MVP A’ja Wilson. Opening Day is the traditional time for championship teams to hoist the banner and hand out the championship rings to everyone.
