Liberty Host Aces in Brooklyn With Rest and Rotation at Issue

New York's three-game home streak gives it momentum against a Las Vegas team that has played three times in four days.

Overview

  • The Liberty (19-13) enter Sunday's game on a three-game winning streak and are favored by a slim margin on the spread.
  • The Aces (22-10) arrive road-weary after an overtime win in Indiana and a loss in Minnesota that leaves coach Becky Hammon considering rotation and minutes changes.
  • Breanna Stewart and A'ja Wilson remain the primary matchup to watch with Stewart scoring in the high 20s recently and Wilson leading the league near 26 points per game.
  • Injury and availability questions could affect depth for both teams with New York listing three players day-to-day and Las Vegas missing multiple players for the season or with leg and concussion issues.
  • The game has seeding implications in a tight race and will test whether New York's rest and home form can counter Las Vegas's depth and top-end scoring on the road.
