The New York Liberty need a win after losing 8 of their last 12 games. The Liberty have won 6 of their last 8 home games.
The New York Liberty are averaging 88.3 points on 45.7 percent shooting and allowing 85.9 points on 44.4 percent shooting.

The New York Liberty are shooting 34.5 percent from beyond the arc and 84.5 percent from the free-throw line. The New York Liberty are allowing 34.2 percent shooting from deep and are grabbing 34.7 rebounds per game.
Satou Sabally is out for the Liberty with a concussion. Leonie Fiebich is out with a foot injury. Marine Johannes is questionable with an ankle injury.
The Sky will be without DiJonai Carrington due to a foot injury. Rickea Jackson is out with a knee injury. Skylar Diggins is out with a knee injury.
The Liberty keep getting treated like they’re a worldbeater, and while there’s talent on this roster, the losses and failed covers are doing a number on the pockets. I’m just not impressed with what I’m seeing from the Liberty, and they should’ve lost to the Wings without Paige. Since June 17, the Liberty are 1-8 ATS as a favorite, and they’ve outright lost 4 of their last 5 games when favorites of 5 or more points. The Sky took the Liberty down to the wire last month and play this up-tempo style that this older New York roster struggles against. The Liberty don’t want to run up and down the floor. Give me the points.
