Back home after being at “home.” The New York Liberty got to defending their Commissioner Cup at UBS Arena thanks to the NBA Draft being at Barclays Center and the WNBA league office not having a proper contingency plan. The fans at UBS Arena brought the energy, but unfortunately for the home team, the Minnesota Lynx proved to be a bit too much. Fortunately for the Liberty, the loss didn’t count in the standings so they remain atop the standings at 15-3.
The opponent tonight is trying to find its way. It’s been a rocky 2024 for the Atlanta Dream, but they’re still within range of a playoff berth.
