Liberty Secure Back-to-Back Wins Over Wings at Barclays Center

News summary

The New York Liberty overcame a recent injury-plagued slump to defeat the Dallas Wings 85-76 at Barclays Center, propelled by strong performances from their big players Jonquel Jones, Leonie Fiebich, and Emma Meesseman in her Brooklyn home debut. Coach Sandy Brondello highlighted the challenges of missing key players like Breanna Stewart due to injury but praised the team's balanced effort and resilience, with five players scoring in double figures. Jonquel Jones recorded her 41st double-double for the Liberty, and Meesseman, a former Finals MVP returning after a hiatus, contributed 13 points. The Wings, led by Paige Bueckers with 21 points, remained competitive but ultimately fell short as the Liberty maintained second place in the WNBA standings. The game also featured notable fan support, including actor Ben Stiller, who joined the team on court after the win, adding to the celebratory atmosphere. The Liberty look to continue their strong finish as they prepare for a rematch with the Wings later in the week.
