In one of the biggest free agent moves in WNBA history, former league MVP Breanna Stewart has decided to play for the New York Liberty, leaving the Seattle Storm after winning two championships in seven years, she announced Wednesday on Twitter.
Wednesday marked the first day WNBA free agents can officially sign contracts and offer sheets for the 2023 season, although sources told ESPN that Stewart is still working through the specifics of the deal she will sign with New York.
"New York is a basketball city, and I can't wait to be a part of it," Stewart told Malika Andrews on ESPN's "SportsCenter" of her decision to join the Liberty.
